the angel you see
is falling fast
beauty seen clearly
is only a mask
can't you see?
the angel so high
is not meant to be
so far up in the sky
you see her there
thinking you know it's right
she hides herself and
the tears she cries alone at night
the angel you see
is a fallen one failed
will you still love her
when her tears you have trailed?

this poem is well written. It flows very well and shows a lot of thought. The only thing I have to criticize is the lines: "beauty seen clearly/is only a mask." Beauty seen unclearly is a mask, but if I thought of seeing Beauty clearly, I would think of seeing a person's beauty as a whole, their true physical beauty, meaning without makeup in the case of ladies, as well as the beauty within them. So in my honest belief, I feel that set of lines could use improvement, but otherwise this poem is a very good piece of work.
