Angel’s Son

We had danced like this many before
We had laughed so much
Yet only you knew what was meant to be funny
We had spoken many words
Many hateful, many loving
And you accepted them all
You always forgave
You always understood
And no matter what was done
You never went away
At least, not until now

The voices murmur your name at night
Grief and sorrow fill my heart
And I write this letter to you
As it is just one song
One last song
For the Angel’s Son

I can remember when you left
I can remember how you walked away
I felt the loneliness soon after
It came like a crashing wave
And it dragged me with it
Bringing me deeper into it
Until I sit here and now
Writing these words to you
Telling you many things
And tears stream down my face
As I tell you everything
Especially that I miss you

The words will be blurred
The ink runs across the paper
And I mutter these words to myself
Hoping you will hear them
I hope you will hear this song
This one last song
All for the Angel’s Son

Things changed so suddenly
I tried to move on
I tried to pick things up
And rebuild them from scratch
But none seems to be possible
I can’t do that
Unless I have you here
With you, things went by
Even better than life made it seemed
I always found a reason to smile
When I found a way to reach you
I always found a way to laugh
When I heard people say your name
I always saw that life was grand
When I knew you would never leave

I didn’t know it could be this bad
My life could never be the same
Because as soon as you were gone
Things instantly changed
So the words I write are words of sorrow
And pleads for forgiveness
A song of remorse
A song of pain
And a song for redemption
This song I write
For the Angel’s Son

It is now I find what my life is missing
It is now that I see why I was blind
I couldn’t breathe, because there was no air
I couldn’t live, because there was no world to live in
Not without you
Not without your presence
Not without your light in the darkness
So here I beg,
I pleade,
I cried,
Hoping to redeem myself
And for you to forgive me
All I want now
Is for the Angel’s Son
To welcome me back

The tears dry quickly
And the paper flies away
Because it is now I see
There is no such thing as a last song
Because there will never be an end
When the Son stands by me
Guiding me forever through this light
He has taken me back
He has welcomed me home at last
And it is here I make my peace with Him
And I find that peace in my life
That only He could give

No more is it a last song
But only one of many
All for the Angel’s Son
