My angel

In a blue baseball cap

I never got to tell you everything I was feeling

You never knew the difference you made

In the heart of a desolate girl

You stood there

Amidst the wind and rain

Seemingly daring the storm

To come anywhere near the two of us

Then you prayed such an honest prayer

And told me that I wasn't alone. Never alone.

All of a sudden I knew it was true

I felt God, and I felt you

And for once

I didn't have to try so desperately hard to be happy

Because I had my Heavenly Father

And a brother in Christ

And I was beloved

Not because I'm gorgeous, or talented, or funny

But because I am a precious child of God

Now whenever I see you

I pray that you know what you did for me

That the look in my eyes tells you,

"To others you may be many things.

But to me you will always be

My affirmation of faith.

My personal answer to prayer.

My angel."
