A body floating in water
drifting out to sea
you came my way
unexpectedly

I could feel the ripples
climbing against my skin
I'm also not sure
where this all really began.

Not sure if I was drowning,
not so sure where I belonged
but when I hit my head
that's when you came along.

I could only look forward
and it was so hard to see
but, when I looked above
there was an angel smiling at me.

I tried to reach for her,
I tried to speak
But, my breath was taken
or so it seemed.

I could feel a pounding in my chest
not just once, but more
then she put her lips to mine,
I was confused for sure.

I coughed up water
then I looked in her eyes
I couldn't believe it
"you just saved my life!"

An angel was there that day
but not one with wings,
instead it was my angel
and now we share two rings.
