You lay there like an angel

Something so exquisite

I can't let you go

I touch your still frame

Why did you do this ?

I  caress you just to see if you stir

You have been my everything for so long

Your hair is flowing

Angel wings protruding like the  ribs on your back

Starved  for attention

I wrap my arms gently around your soul

Whisper into your ear "Why baby did you let go?"

There are traces of white dust on your perfect little nose

The void in your eyes will never leave my mind

I always thought you were perfect

Now just so still like an angel ghost

My baby darling I'm  left behind

As you lay perfectly still

I say some prayers hoping someone,  somewhere can hear

I lift my arms so gently into the air

Smell the linger of your perfume coming  from your hair

Look into your delicate face one more time

From that moment you leave

I have never been able to replace you
