Angel Crying

The color from her eyes have been drained;
a frown covers her face. Her wings
shattered; falling down…down…down and
crashing to ground, but not making a sound.

Rachel was only six years old when her
daddy left her. Her heart broke, an everything
fell to pieces. She begged him “Please daddy don’t
go!” But he just wouldn’t listen. Day after day
she threw a quarter in the same well just
wishin he’d come back. Every night as she lay
awake in bed, she swore she could hear a cryin angel…

When an angel cries the skies go dark.
The salt from their tears stain the ground
and make their mark. When an angel cries
it pours down drowning the world.

Billy was 15 years old when his parents reported him
missin’. They didn’t know how it could happen to them.
He was only a kid. When they found him, it was too
late, he had already gone.
