angel in disguise

I'll never fully fathom what you went through

But I want you to know it doesn't define you

If I could I would take your hurt as my own

I want you to know you will never be alone

It pains me to think of what you've endured

But you've won the battle, life is your reward

Your the epitome of beauty and you don't even know

Submerged in faith, you find the courage to grow

Scarred by a past full of darkness and violence

You mask your vulnerability beneath subtle silence

No need to speak, your deep insightful eyes say it all

Rising from your ashes no matter how hard the fall

Everything you do is influenced by your grace

You subconsciously struggle to hide it from your face

Yet your elegance can not be subdued

You set up walls, its your past you allude

In a world of lies your illuminated by truth

Your inner light shines as an halo, encompassing you

Surrounded by shallow ambition you remain grounded

You never surrender, even when you feel surrounded

Your vulnerability comes from your soul

Mixing with your courage, making you whole

So tune with your emotions there are times when you cry

As you bravely look reality in the eye

Little broken angel, in times your wings will heal

The last faith in this world, your the only thing that's real

A living saint with wisdom beyond your years

Carrying the weight of the world and battling your fears

Caught in a war with no intent to win

For the outcome will be greater, peace within

As I write these words I begin to see clearly

I can only hope there is a hint of you inside me

I want to thank you for showing me love

Your my guardian angel, sent from above

In a world of despair your spirit provides contrast

Epitomizing hope, your influence will always last

All that I am is a product of you

This is the one thing I know to be true

So whenever you feel the toll of life's pressure

Remember that my love is beyond any measure

Words can't describe the beauty of your spirit

A symphony of all things pure, waiting for you to hear it

So as I tell you I love you, I'm really saying much more

I was born into a closed world and you opened the door

You are the reason I know about love

My angel in disguise, sent from above
