For Angel Poem by Christian Rivera

What if the stars just lost their shine,
Never to flicker their twinkly lights?
What if the sacred beings turned malign,
To torture the souls of the undefined?

I'd stand against the dark decline
And breathe new life into the night
I'd right the wrongs of the 'sanctified'
To dry the tears of exhausted lives

I'd do it all for you
Because you told me to
And if that was not true
I'd do it all for you

What if birds lost their learn to fly,
And all that was left was an empty sky?
What if all the rivers went bone-dry
To quench the thirst of battle cries?

I'd toss a million paper cranes up high
And prepare my strength as they slowly glide
I'd make it rain all through the fight
To wash out the fires of humankind

I'd do it all for you
Because you need me to
And if that was not true
I'd do it all for you

No matter the risks you take in your own life
I'll keep you safe from the obscene unwise
To show you justice in the wrongs I right
To show you love is somewhere deep inside

What if the world was cold and black and white?
I'd keep you warm and safe with watchful eyes
What if we never crossed our paths in life?
I'd go on living searching for your light

I'd do it all for you
Because you want me to
And if that was not true
I'd disappear for good
