Forbidden love

In heaven I'm an angel in waiting;
on earth I'm beginning to live.
But wait, seems like my life is ending:
why do you want to get rid of me?

I'm too small to have my say;
if I could I'd carry on my way.
Seems my life is in your hands:
all I want from you is to give me a chance.

No hard feelings, no angry thoughts;
although it hurts, my life you stopped.
In waiting I'll stay until we meet one day.
In heaven not on earth our forbidden love we'll share.

by Caroline Falzon
