Pretty Little Angel Eyes

I’m never sure if that’s you I see
but I talk to you anyway,
since you’re the only one I want it to be.

You shimmer on top of the water in the sun,
your smile radiates like it once did,
and I’m convinced you’re with me once more.

You only seem to visit me at opportune times,
more likely those are the only times I look for you.

It’s so hard to remind myself that you’ll be gone forever,
hard to see the truth that I can never have you back,
will never again dance with you.

I see you over and over in my head,
in the rain and the wind,
it makes it impossible to forget you.

I promise you I’ll never stop repeating our inside jokes.
They don’t know what I’m referring to,
but I can feel a piece of you there whenever I do.
You don’t really ever leave me.

You’re always there.
The sun just reflects your beautiful face for me to see.
The dew in the sky shimmers off your spirit,
and I breathe happy again.
