My Guardian Angel

Every time I look back, there I see him right behind me, right where he promised to be. Urging me to carry on, I hear this voice, "Take the path you always yearned for".

Tragically, this isn't at all where I wanted to be. I never asked for this. But sometimes life's like that.

I search his face for signs of mock, I find nothing. Instead I find an angelic smile that never fades away. So I take this road, solely because I want to find out where it ends; how far the journey will take my to my destined place or how near to it.
