An angel awaits

An angel awaits Laying there a smile crept on her face My heart feels a tugging sensation I can't believe the moment has come. My life leading to this moment flashed before my eyes An angel awaits As I reach out my arms to hold her Afraid to damage her precious wings Instantly her smile takes a hold of my soul Clutched in my arms her eyes are stained in innocence An angel awaits Untainted by the horrors of this world She will be my gentle reminder of what's important For I will watch over her and guide her And she will remind me to take nothing for granted An angel awaits all the joy and love I have to give An angel sent by God; with me she shall live.
