My First to an Angel

Someone kissed me in the dark tonight;

I was scared at first but her eyes said it was alright.

I talked about my past and the wreck that day;

I wasn’t sure if I should but her smile told me it was ok.

Tonight I was held and for the first

time it felt like someone needed me; So comfortable, so at ease, laying together if only time would’ve stopped and.. let us be.

Her face...so amazing with her

hair draped around. Those looks...she said so many things to me, all without a sound.

I felt her heart. It seemed like

it beat just the same as mine; I couldn’t help but wonder... was it coincidence or maybe a sign?

Her smell is on my bed, my clothes and...me

I can still taste her on my lips... How she felt in my arms, how she looked.... I think of it all and just smile.
