Why can you not see me?
Denial clouds your vision
From the fog of passing
My spirit has risen
Do you not sense me?
Unaware that I am close
I am here to protect you
I'm not a haunting ghost
The little things hidden
That you cannot find
I'm trying to tell you it's me
Only you are still so blind
A flightless Angel I am
My place is by your side
I hear your inner thoughts
To me you can confide
If only the thick thread
Of life and of death
Was not so hard to pass
Hope is all I have left
I sit by your oblivious side
That you shall feel me near
Your very own flightless angel
Stays to protect what it holds dear
