Your Poetry Dot Com - God Took You For A Reason

As I stood by your bed
And held your hand tight
I could see the pain in your face,
Although you tried to hide it.

My face was wet from tears,
My hands were pale from worry.
But with all the effort you had,
You looked up at me and smiled.

I tried to smile back,
But I couldn’t bring myself to do it
Because I knew that you were dieing
And there was nothing I could do.

Then your smile faded
As you slowly shut your eyes
And all those emotions I held inside
Where all of a sudden alive.

All the pain and suffering,
That I felt deep inside
Were shown by tears
That wouldn’t stop
No madder how hard I tried.

It was then I remember you had promised me
That all I had to do was pray
And you would come down from heaven
And be there with me.

So I looked up to the sky
And prayed right then and there
That you would come down to heaven
And be there with me

It was then my tears started to stop,
As quickly as they had begun
And I knew god had sent an angel,
Down from above.

And that angel was you
He sent you down from heaven
To comfort and ease my pain.

Then I realized He took you up to heaven
So you could watch up over me
And when I felt like I was all alone
You could be there to help me through the pain.
