"Angel Eyes"
Love shines through the eyes of an Angel ...
We try to do right, we strive to be better
Sometimes we may end up being wrong
Yet, we have to get back up
We have to keep going -- going strong
No one is perfect, we all have our flaws
We learn to compromise, the art of give and take
At times we merely need a friend who'll listen
Yet, wisdoms are gained through our own foolish mistakes
I can run from my feelings or hide from my emotions
And I will surely lose
I can stay and fight, and risk my pride
But, this, is a choice that only I can choose
A fear of getting close, afraid of being hurt
Standing still, staring at lights, all alone
Memories of the past to build upon tomorrow
Just who am I, and where is my home ?
Live in the present, be aware of the unknown
Our choices are destiny, to guide our own fate
Believe and trust in myself, having faith in God
An unconditional love, is all it will take
Life is precious, yet so hard to hold
We can run and we can hide
But we'll never know the truth
Unless we've tried
Visions of Heaven above
Images in rainbow colored skies
A lit tree, a life changed forever
Love shines through an Angel's eyes
There's a glow from within, gentle and sincere
With arms spread wide, and heart sublime
She touches her world with a genuine tenderness
A soft caress, of the natural loving kind
With open hands and ever clear heart
She turns a sad child's tears into a smiling soul
An inner beauty compared to no other
A child who can't carry a note, sings like a pro
A gift from above has entered my world
Through clouded skies of pouring down rains
When I see life through the eyes of this Angel
All my losses somehow turn to gains
She has helped me crawl forward
And allowed me to reach deep within
Games can be played on the mind
Yet, emotions are felt, as a new life begins
She fills my heart with laughter
Helps push away my fears
She brightens even my darkest hour
To the point of bringing tears
With a laugh so bold, I just have to smile
A voice so delicate and sweet
Her lips breathe life into my lungs
Her kiss, makes my heart skip a beat
You set my soul on fire
My heart aglow
Your inner beauty my desire
You, were a blessing just to know !
I know a good thing when I see it
I see it within your youth
The soul can not be lied to
It only feels the truth
My Angel has departed
Yet lives on forever within my heart
She gives me strength and hope and reason
To seek out my brand new start
      ... Love shines through the eyes of an Angel.
