The Lady Timberland speaks: There are many things in life that haunt us, but particular phrases that struck clear to the heart of the human soul often repeat like a broken record. Young I might be, but full of pain and regret I am. It's hard to move on, especially when something so beautifully put comes back as a strange parody when that someone who still has a hold on your heart won't even look you in the face... hence, the poem, "Beautiful Angel." ******************** If I was your beautiful angel, Just as you claimed, Would you ignore me when I'm Hovering right by your side? Whenever you smiled, I was the one to cry. Whenever I sing, I was the one to cry. If I was your beautiful angel, Just as you told me face-to-face, Why would you use me just as Your ornamentation for your need sexual? Whenever you laughed, I was the one with my head hung in sorrow. Whenever you looked the other way, I was the one walking away. If I was your beautiful angel, I wouldn't be hurting so bad. If I was your beautiful angel, I wouldn't be aching inside my heart. Whenever you dreamed, I wasn't the one you'd see. Whenever you cried, I wasn't the one you turned to. If I was your beautiful angel, I would have never left your heart. But instead, as all things go, I guess I'm not the one for the part. Whenever you kissed me, You were near only then. Whenever you made love to me, I wasn't the one you dreamed of. If I was your beautiful angel, Would I have to cry all the time? If I was your beautiful angel, Wouldn't you show me in time? I'm not the one you want Because whenever you're near I feel distant. I'm not the one you want Because you've broken my heart With your empty words. You pushed me away So many times. I can't walk away But yet at the same time I know that I gotta go, Leave you be. If I was your beautiful angel, You wouldn't lie to me. If I was your beautiful angel, You wouldn't have passed up the chance. Whenever you get the chance, I'm not the one. If I wanted to be in your arms, You passed up the opportunity for us to dance. If I was your beautiful angel, Would you be so far away? I'd turn to silver-blue for you; There's not a thing I wouldn't do. Beautiful angel I'm not Because I'm not the one you see. When I dream, I have to cry because you're the One holding me. Kissing me, brushing the hair away-- It's all a fantasy. You didn't hold your promise, So I gotta fall from my pedestal now. Red lines, so angry, Decorate my arms. Red eyes, I'm so lonely, But you're never around. |
