Child's Eyes and Angel's Wings

Child's eyes and angel's wings,
Broken halo formed from sin.
I'm not your Satan, I'm just lost:
Trapped inside a heart of frost.
It's too late, the damage done.
I never knew I killed the sun.
A blackened lie that just won't budge.
All my life becomes the smudge.
Apathy is killing me.
Forgot to care; pain's all I see,
So die a little, you'll get by:
Become a scar and wish to die.
A void for a heart, that just won't start.
Faith is dead, yeah, torn apart.
I'm a sin, death incarnate.
Growing bitter. Broken fate.
Come too far to undo this.
I can't make the pieces fit.
Live the lie, become its slave.
No one taught me how to hate.
I'm the parasite you're feeding.
Let me take the life that's leaving.
Sew me up, I'm good as new,
Losing track of all I do.
Struck by guilt for what I've done
And the scar that I've become.
Beg me, maybe I'll surpress
All the demons you undress.
I'm the filth that you forbid:
Anti- everything sacred.
Never been of any worth;
Dying since my date of birth.
Slash me down, I'm not worth saving.
Hardly even worth betraying.
I'm a shadow, echo, ghost.
I suck the life out of my host.
Rotting carcass that becomes me:
Still a pulse in buried body.
Empty skull that just needs breaking.
Lost my mind that you were raping.
I'm the gutter-trash you spit on,
Beauty's body that you shit on.
Beat me down and I'll give in.
Child's eyes and angel's wings.
Child's eyes and angel's wings.
Child's eyes and angel's wings.
Child's eyes and angel's wings.
Child's eyes and angel's wings.

Author notes

This is a really old one. I think I was about 15 or 16 when I wrote it (in my really goth stage). There are many parts of it I'm not happy with so if you have any suggestions please don't worry about being critical!

    I plan to revise this poem: please leave constructive criticism!
