Even if just for a moment,
I want to touch the most intimate
parts of your soul with my tongue
and taste what its like for you
to be with me.
I try to protect your
heart from what I never
could endure or take

I try to fix your mess
while I make the
same repeated mistake

I try to fight your war
but can't stand on
my own battlefield

I could never protect
myself and instead
I became a human shield

Lilith
If you could turn back the clock
And go back a few days
What would you leave and what would you change?
Would you do the homework from last Thursday?
Would you drive to work sooner so you weren't late?
Smile at the janitor that sweeps the hall...
He has feelings too you know.
You could save a broken soul
The boy in math that sits alone,
You could convince a girl to stop before she cuts to deep!
You could say 'I love you' to a man that dies in his sleep.
A million things you would change.
So live tomorrow like its yesterday.

Ethereal wings,
Divine magical luminescence,
halo of pure light.

An angel on the edge,
spreading her wings,

will she fly or fall?

Angelic tears
create rain.

Even angels
feel pain.
