This is written for those that have bad things to say before knowing the angel inside.

Driving in me is a lack of time
Always needing to do something on borrowed time
As I sleep I play for more space inside a second
In tick and then a tock a blur of needed actions occur
In a whirlwind of torrential worries
The storming of accumulations
Need to be exploded in the fireworks

Of others mind requesting more of my time
My impatience will seen as snub by some
And no undoing will untangle the knotted mess
My mind blankedly lonely, I sub come to a pill
That is supposed to create another spell

To create another mess in another place
So I am conquered by those that talk about me
As a demon from the dark abyss whose words
Will slaughter your pride in the thoughts  
And take you away your liberties

But flying high are my words written on the sky
To float along the mind that will carry them
Into the garden so blessed I wish I was here now
I would loose myself to look at the book of life
Read it passages of time in blessed verse

And in a pillow so soft I could melt my minds flow
My mind would cuddle you my reader
In a blessing so special that a tear would drop
And I would then know that my heart inside
Could beat again in any time
And any given second
In that special way
That lives in your smile

Sometimes we get so caught up in our 'stuff' that we forget to take time to listen to the angels... I enjoyed this..
