Poetry by Maggie McConnell



Angel

Nothing's ever good enough for me
even when Heaven's holding me.
I wish I had the eyes to see an angel
lying next to me.
I never knew the words to say
to keep my angel, to make you stay.
Now it seems an illusion,
whoever thought there would be such confusion.
I never thought I'd live to see
my angel fly so free from me.
What happened to my angel?
Was it all in my Head?


ONE MORE

One more tear down my cheek
One more word I did not speak
One more lie I shouldn't have said
One more memory in my head.
One last kiss before I cry
One more day till I say good-bye
One last day to sit and cry
Wonder why I let the days go by?


...Lagniappe!
