Guardian Angel

When I was an angel,
I was a ghost,
That was the time I loved you the most.

I protected your life,
I guarded your soul,
I was a phnatom; that was my role.

When you weep for me,
I whisper in your ear,
'It is all right; I am still here.'

I get rid of your despair,
To free your thoughts and mind,
So that peace you may find.

You may think that I am gone,
Yet, I am always near,
That is why there is no need to fear.

When I was an angel,
I was a ghost,
That was the time I loved you the most.
