Angels

I once met a girl with a broken face
Her beauty poured from selfless grace
Now she's gone with hardly a trace
And I will never be the same

I once met a man who talked straight to my soul
His words of wisdom soon took their toll
I felt like I died, but he left me whole
And I never knew his name

Both angels, but less entertained
For I am the one whose life was changed
Now I am no longer estranged
For those have shown me the way.

I once met a child who was six foot-three
Stared at the mirror and a man stared at me
And wondered at the people who've made me be
The man I am today
