Island to the water
Beautiful eyes
Are meant to see
the path ahead
that very reason
is why
many brave souls
step up
give thier lives
so we
have a path ahead
and can picture
beautiful birds
with a
voiceand
a precious song
or to wake up
able to hug
a lved one
its about how you see
somthing beautiful
like an
angel
wtih white wings
staring you in the eyes
but some how
you see a sky
in the far distence
as you trip
on the gravel
head first
but it seems as you move closer
the distence moves further
away
stare once more
at the angel flying
from the island to the water
