Devil or Angel?

Everyone in our lives was sent for a reason;
Some will stay a lifetime, others for just a season.

All were sent, a lesson to impart.
Some are meant to enrich our lives;
Some will break our heart.

Some will seem like the devil; we should make them leave.
Others will feel like angels, to them we must learn to cleave.

But be careful! Some will appear to be angels;
But they are devils trying to deceive.
They will say and do nice things to us;
And hope that we'll believe.

But if you listen only to the angels,
Who've proved themselves to be true;
They'll keep your eyes and mind clear,
And you'll always know what to do.

Your angels are always with you,
You know who they are;
And anytime you need them,
They're really not all that far.
Just close your eyes and think of them,
And they'll be where you are!
