"An eye for an eye.
In pride we die.
Souls don't never sing,
as my angels cry.
Hope is all but gone,
As Satan's day dawns in.
Showers from the heavens,
But the angels only sing;
Seeing eyes of mercy,
A lonely sky tonight.
Angels stand on grace,
To grace we see the light.
Selling souls for paper.
Temptations reaching higher.
Speaking lines of sin.
Words all braced in fire.
Doubt, but in myself,
Can the one believe,
God is touching me?
Who knows what I'll achieve,
powers for the weak?
My words will put things right.
Angels sing for grace,
But souls don't sing tonight."

I liked this very well except for the line, "souls don't never sin". Otherwise, a good flow and imagery.

From the darkness, there was light that shone so brightly, it blinded the evilness within us all! Your words captivate me here! There are moments of fast breathing, remorse, regret and salvation within these walls of form! Brillant job poet! Breathe in that light, it will always shine the way through! Autumn

Please note: "soul's" (with an apostrophe before the s) is the possessive form and means "of one soul". Surely in your title you mean "Souls" (plural and NOT possessive).
