Sweet Angel

Thy presence dances for me of the precipices of my dreams.

You come again and again unto me with the surety of peace.

Your heart was always true and your love for me forever mine.

You are my sweet angel; the soul of my memory for all time.

I wept hard today as I sold a piece of you to strangers of another land.

I sold unto them your pride and joy; your new piano that you played so grand.

Now another woman’s fingers will do runs up and down those ivory keys.

Yet she shall never make so sweet the music as when you my sweet angel sings.

Little by little my most precious love, I release a small piece of you each day.

Be it a trinket, a memento or a painting done by your hands…I give them away.

They are precious to me…they are connections to you, but when all is said and done…..nothing but memories held in my heart will remain.

Do you see my sweet angel… Oh do you see?

I will always and forever love you, but now in my memory.

I shall love again and I shall love the next as much as I did you.

She is waiting, oh waiting; and I know that by God and you that my next love will always be true.
