Head buried in her arms
Delicate fingers wipe away
Her tears that flow on
Like an endless river
Wings tucked in, trapped
Not flying in the clear blue sky
But weeping under the dull grey clouds
Her magical halo lost its touch
Stopped glowing under the sunlight
Gleaming brighter than the sun
But now it’s darker than the night sky
Fallen from heaven to bless us
A confused and heart-broken angel
Seeking to find a helping hand
That’d mend her scarred heart
