"Time heals griefs and quarrels, for we change and are no longer the same persons."


Every day I sit here and wonder

Why did this have to happen?

You were the one I felt safe with.

The one that kept me from crying.



Every day I wonder why you?

You never did anything wrong.

Cracking jokes every second.

Making people laugh day after day.



Then the day came when you got taken away.

Never to crack another lame joke.

No more laughing from anyone.

Only crying, wondering why.



Till the day came when I felt safe again.

How could this be if you aren’t here?

I hear your voice whispering in my ear.

You told me everything would be okay.



I never felt so safe before.

Until you became my angel.

Wrapping your wings around me.

Helping me find my way.



Every day I sit here and wonder,

Why did you choose me?

You are the one that keeps me safe.

The one that keeps me from crying.



In your arms I am safe.

You make me strong.

I am never alone when I am with you.

Keeping my head held high.



Wrapped in your wings, is my special place.

Where I can go when I want to feel safe.

You keep me away from all the pain.

Making sure I only smile.



I never want to leave your arms.

Staying safe and warm for years to come.

You are my angel.

My special place I will never leave.
