It was a happy time
I was a happy person

Waiting in anticipation
for the momentous occasion
I was caught off gaurd

I saw you
an Angel in black
a Goddess?
mine

I could touch you
would you understand?
did you feel what I felt?

I tucked you away
in the back of my mind
It was a happy time
and I was ecstatic

I would free you
when the time was right
you would understand

but I let you go
you sliped through my hands
as I was carried away
in the happy tide
I was washed away
you never saw me
would you understand?

it was a happy time
and I was a happy person
but I knew that somewhere
in the back of my mind
something had died
