An angel be you.
A being protected by the highest
A figure crooked, surrounded by light
A silhouette heavy, carried by wings
You look pure
Corrupt
You appear white
Stained
You seem free
Chained
By your own doing.
Im not strong emotionally
You know
You are
It’s surprising
You know
You are
Over-confident for what you did
An angel
You lied and cheated
Growled and bleated
An angel
You’d take candy from a kid.
I’ve cracked
Because of you
I’ve flipped
It’s what you do
I’ve snapped
You and your motley crew
Who go where the angels fear to tread
That place angels fear
Ill find you
I promise
You can’t hide this time
Ill seek you out now
Await in the silence
For you to fly in from the shadows
The loneliness of where I am
But its where you reside
Hidden from view
I wallow in pride
To await in the silence
For you to fly in from the shadows
…YOU…
Emerge fast and ready
Now its time
To keep my hand steady
Repay the crime
While your back is turned
Your skin I burned
Your stomach churned
And your lesson learned
I spit on the angel who could do such things
To me
Manipulate decisions so high and mighty
Mine to make but you I called for help
Your advice
I took
Had failed
My mind you messed with was vulnerable
And at the time
You knew
And at the time I didn’t
That in time, your advice would work
I suppose when people get close
They sometimes collide
And that’s when the truth gets turned into lies.
The lies were in me not you
It wasn’t your fault
The words you sang were true
I made a mistake
Mistake
To just turn back the clock
Bring back angels by the flock
What have I done?
Now im bleeding from the eyes
As I hear the heavens cries
My supporter, my defender, my protector
I will leave you in peace now
Give your wings back to your dreams
But there is one more thing that I must do,
With this pen that I must clutch,
Dear angel,
I miss you
So much

tremendous work. i like how you went back and forth in contradictions. you kept changing direction and moving emotions around. almost like being on a good rollercoaster.
i think you keep the reader in attention and the whole blame shift concept was executed well. great job smoke. -
umm to be honest i didn't write it with anyone in mind...but thinking about it... there are a few people it could represent.
thanks for your comment and applause
