Does She Walk With the Angels?

Does she walk with the angels?
A lonesome soul lost in snow
Step after step she goes alone
The days last forever in a nightscape abyss
Marching towards an eternity
Gabriel’s trumpet calling her home

Does she walk with the angels?
Nothing left to hold on to
No one to say a last goodbye
Frosted fingertips reaching out in wind
A forced sacrifice to God
“Lord, take me home. I am dead alive.”

Does she walk with the angels?
Winter creating a shallow grave
A single imprint left in ice
All sounds lost to the silence of death
Dancing in the Kingdom of forever
She can feel the afterlife

Does she walk with the angels?
A frozen tear down her cheek
The glistening of porcelain skin
Overtaken by the valley of The Shadow
Perpetually chasing the darkness
No light to touch her face again

Does she walk with the angels?
Her body weathered and beaten
A welcoming hymn ceases to be
Rain rusting the innocence at heart
The spirit vanished and forgotten
God does not hear her plea
