Second Chance
He spends everyday on his cloud, watching her day and night.
Waiting until her house light goes out and she is out of sight.
His job seems very easy, sitting there everyday.
He didn't think that he would end up seeing her this way.
That day when he pulled the trigger, was always on her mind.
She always cried late at night, trying to put it behind.
Then one day she made up her mind, that she wanted him back.
When she pulled that trigger, a body she would lack.
But nothing would stop her, from what she wanted most.
The thunderous voice woke him up and he was on his way,
Down to earth by her side, to convey what he had to say.
Slowly she changed her mind and began to cry.
Thinking about what would have happened if she did die.
Slowly she felt his warmth and the joy of giving birth,
He had been given a second chance and was back on earth.
