Heavens Could Not Wait For You...

If only I had the power
The power to hold your breath
I wouldn't have let it away
I wouldn't have let you close your eyes eternally
I would have let you stay with me until I was matured enough to be on my own
Like all the other chicks
I still need you shouting at me
I still need your comfort
Oh ! but death
Did you really had to take an angel like her
The only cotton candy cloud that eased the scorching of my heart ,you're really gone?
