Freedom Angel

• On weary wings I take my flight
• To lofty cloudy streaked sky.
• Higher into star-filled night
• My burdened soul does fly.
• 
  
• Below me now I see the waves
• That crash upon the sand.
• They seem to me as helpless slaves
• Of Neptune's ocean hand.
• 
  
• I think of how I seem to be
• A slave in that same way.
• With tear stained cheeks
• I clearly see the price that I must pay.
• 
  
• And then amidst my sorrow still
• I plant my thoughts on you,
• And sunshine fills the darkened sky
• Birthing it anew.
• 
  
• Water glistens.
• Gulls flyIn skies now warm and bright,
• And suddenly I realize
• That you're the source of light.
• 
  
• I watch as still you brighter grow
• And cast your light askew.
• All at once the heavens glow
• With a light that I call "you."
• 
  
• I watch a rosebud open up
• To drink your beams of love.
• Its tender petals spread to sup
• The warmth cast from above.
• 
  
• A smile emerges upon my face
• As then it dawns on me
• That I can bask in an angel's grace.
• It's she who set me free.
• 
  
• So freedom angel, take your flight
• Into my life undone.
• Mend the pieces of my heart,
• And make them whole, as one.
• 
  
• Freedom angel, your're to me
• A beacon in the night.
• A shining star for me to see.
• So guide me by your light.
• 
  
• Just love me angel. Be so true.
• Stay strong and never sway,
• And all my life I'll look to you
• To love me every day.
