Analysis of I died a little bit



Blue lights shon on you like wings of water
As you rose like the tide and forgot a while about the little things
Pretty lines drew happiness on your face
Intriguing my heart and mind to trace them
How do I follow you this new way
You have shown me, this perfect day.
My spirit imagines more thanks than for rain as you quench my calling to ease this new pain.
You look upon me like a Guardian Angel
Allowing me to be more grateful
