MISSING YOU

 I found myself missing you today

But I do not miss the games you play

Making me feel I am not enough

Meanwhile I try to act so tough

Inside myself my heart is crying

A part of me is slowly dying

I found myself missing you today

Then I turned and walked away

YOU DON'T KNOW ME

 You don't know me

All you know is what you've heard

You can't see me

I am far away somewhere better

And you can't show me

Why letting you in closer

Would ever be a good idea

THE BROKEN SPARROW

 The skies open up

God is crying

He saw another little sparrow fall

I dust off my wings

I can't keep myself from sighing

The broken sparrow, I stand tall

FALLEN ANGEL

 Fallen angel cries 

As he falls toward the earth

The darkness of his eyes

Barely cover tears

Not knowing what they're worth

Fallen angel sighs

As he brushes off his wings

Covered with the dirt

Of masses crying in vain

For peace and harmony

Reaching out to him 

It's too late 

Can't they see?
