Fallen angel

6 1 1
                                    

Stripped of wings,
Tending to fall.
Take a leap of faith,
Can Never let go.
But you can never hold on.
People can't hear:
the yells,
The cries,
The tears,
Or the pain,
People can only hear
The angels that sing,
They angels that laugh,
They are the angels that are saved.

A twisted love,
Where everyone loses.
Learning,
Yearning,
difficult to let go of,
Scary to let go.
Everyone smiles and nods,
As if it's all okay,
But it's not .
Because you're not okay.
You never were .

A fallen angel,
Stripped of wings.
Can try to fly,
And fail every time.
Don't get up now.
The more you hurt,
The more they laugh.
You're not missed,
They don't think of you every kiss.
Did you fall too far?

A fallen angel,
Stripped of power.
Can never achieve.
Can never love.
When there isn't anything else,
Anyone else,
Where will you go?
You're not welcomed,
You're just a sad memory,
Pushed to the back.
Not wanted to be thought about.

A fallen angel,
Stripped of faith.
No one to believe in,
To trust,
When everything goes wrong,
Where will you go?
Do you believe?
In the one always there?
Will you believe in the one who could never leave?
Will you learn to believe in yourself?

A fallen angel,
Stripped of pride.
Could you climb back up?
Repeatedly pushed,
Prodded,
Provoked,
And ignored.
Used. Forgotten. And suffered.
Will you forgive?
Can you forget?

A fallen angel,
Can you fly?
Soar above all,
Wish them goodnight.
Can you glide above the clouds?
And leave your world behind.
Sing them your melody,
Of beauty and fright.

A fallen angel,
Stuck on the ground.
Dreams of having it all,
Being the higher than all,
Finally respected,
Accepted,
Loved.
Wake up.
That's always the struggle,
Waking up from the dream,
Into a nightmare.

You never asked for this.
Fly far far away.
Leave your troubles at the door.
Go where you are free,
Free from the restraints in which you are kept,
Held captive in this world of sorrow and evil,
Escape, leave, flee.
Spread your wings,
Reach for the sky.
You smile,
Knowing where you are going,
You can finally be free.
