You'll Rest In The Arms Of An Angel Poem by Mark Heathcote

Some say you'll rest in the arms of an angel when you're gone.
But darling, I hope it's just me.
Darling, some say you'll fly like a shingle roof tile far from me
But darling, I'll thatch that and keep you close tight to me
With hazel spars, I'll U-turn your heart. Just you, wait and see.
Some say, darling, your heart isn't safe with me
But darling, it's safer than money in the bank. Trust me.

But darling, I hope it's just me.
Darling, some say you've drifted off track
But darling, I know these roads well and all lead back to me.
Some say, darling, 'What have you done? '
Let this rag-and-bone man be
But darling, my ships in the port
Headed for a maiden voyage, you'll see
It's a voyage just for you and me.

And like a grifter darling, you'll uncover
Some gold that still glitters in my heart and soul
That shares all our shared memories
That survived all the storms that took
Others blossom on a breeze, unkind.
But with us, darling, it played no tricks
It just is. Wherever we want to, to goes. In our bedclothes
