I wish to be an Angel

I look up to the stars and see you soaring there.
A longing comes from my heart wishing to be by your side,
soaring through the skies, the clouds, and talking to the stars.
I see you protecting the ones you love in a way no one would ever dare.

Every night I lay awake looking toward the sky,
to the beautiful city of light shining across the galaxy.
It gives us all hope that one day we can soon live there.
A place we can finally be ourselves and be clear.

So soon you have been given this new life
when the rest of us are just beginning ours.
Sometimes I wish and pray to be among the stars
flying with you and getting a tour to a place beyond this dull heartache.

Try as I might I already have an answer to my prayers
though someday I may be able to fly with you among the mighty,
protect the ones I love from the darkness and the wicked
the lessons I must learn from this confusing world of darkness and light remains to be unclear.
