Angel’s Bliss
H. W. Bryce
When you fear something so hard that a tear
Clambers your eyelid and slides down your ’lash
To lay a kiss on your cheek,
The one thing to remember is this:
That a kiss is angel bliss.
It’s a gift, to help you along,
And when it washes away all sadness and loss,
You will find your lost smile was not lost.
And when you are sad and you think you’ll never be glad
Ever again,
Remember the tear is an angel’s bliss,
A gift from the gods as a kiss.
A tear it is no loss,
What’s lost is the sadness it washes away
As it washes good feelings back in;
And there’s no room for melancholy to stay.
So smile though your tears and know the grieving will go
That the stars will come out for the night,
And the sun will gleam through your window again,
And the rain will renew your whole world.
A tear drop or rain, it’s all the same in the end,
And you will learn to bend with the wind.
When you are feeling alone
And you no longer can speak
And nobody can make any sense,
Pray for a kiss that is angel bliss,
That will make all the hurt to decease
And lead you to certainty and peace.
A kiss is a kiss and a teardrop is bliss
From the sweet lips of an angel with wings,
And it will help you to heal from life’s little stings,
And you will rise with new strength from all this.
