They say that you use to be a fading rose
In the lonely gates of heaven,
And until you opened up your eyes
You were just another child lost in the night,
And until the angels gave you my life
You were so close to saying goodbye,
So how in the hell
Did you get so far away
From the dreams
Where you were safe in heaven
One day baby -- I know
You're going to leave this
All behind you
And you're going to be
Safe at home again....

Sometimes, I guess there is just no way to know how far a heart must fall to find its way back home. A sad and angered piece, hopeful yet pained. Thank you for your entry & Best wishes in the contest!
