I don't believe in them

But there are gods

Gods which can only dream of finding someone like you

Someone who listens so closely

That their head pounds like a breaking dam

Waves crashing over the sides

To create a waterfall of empathy

 

You may be bound to this earth

Waiting for the oncoming rapture like I

But if you are a godsent

I wish to be your angel

 

Not that I am holy

But I wish to cover you with my wings

 

No matter how broken

Or torn

They may be

From the things of my past

 

You never seem to mind...

 

I wish to stop that pounding headache

Take on this burden for you

Evaporate the water droplets to create a rainbow

 

I know I can't

I know you would never let

But please

 

Let me hold you

Hug you

Lay your head down and try to rest beside you

Only wishing you would let me do more

My love

 

I never bore

I never will

Of seeing you try to return to heaven

I know you will

I know I can't follow your path

But please

 

Let me continue wishing for you in the afterlife
