I open my eyes and see my true love.
Standing tell my heart pounds inside my chest.
Cannot be human, must be sent from above.
An angel with wings, number one, the best.
Unatural and perfect in all ways.
No flaws or problems, this one is for me.
I knew the first time, there were no delays.
Him just sitting there its simple to see.
Of course it is fate my heart would not lie.
I have finnaly been sent my one gift.
To capture his heart i will wail and cry.
I know we will have hurdles we must lift.
Together we can conquer our world.
With effort everything will come uncurled.
