Angel to Me

by Dennis Espineli Salcedo

Just when I felt so sad and alone
Enough for me to call this world my own
Right here, right then, you came along
One smile, one touch, how can I be wrong—
Maybe you’re the angel God has sent me
Everything I want the world to be
No one else could ever take your place inside of me
And anywhere I look, it’s you I see
Given as the most precious Gift of all
Uncovering the secrets to my very soul
In time to catch me when I fall
A secret key to another world
Though I can’t give you anything in return
Thankful for showing me the light again
Ordinary miracles everyday happen
Right from the moment you came from heaven
Revealed as life’s romantic melody
Enough for me to see the world differently
Someone like an angel to me…
