Angel Mine

I didn’t know why you had wings.
I assumed you were an angel.
That’s all anyone had ever told me
you could be.
They told me an angel would come
and there you were.
Never mind that your wings were
made for one. Never mind
you didn’t tell me that was the
reason.
Never mind you had all your own
battles to fight
and run away from.
Angels don’t belong
to people.
So you were never
mine.
