hi yall
no fancy intro this time.   just a sad poem from a sad person.  tell me what yall think.

Broken Little Angel

what do you do
when you lose it all?
when you can no longer fly
and have no place to fall
your life, once together
has fallen all apart
everything around you crumbling
especialy your heart
you think you have it made
and everything is fine
hoping it will last forever
you put your soul on the line
but the odds are stacked agaist you
no matter how hard you try
always a losing battle
always ends with a cry
tears that were once of joy and laughter
turn to pain in a flash
leaving you broken and hurting
and feeling like trash
i cry to the alleyway
confess all to the rain
wishing that someone can help me
and take away this pain
i try to look into the mirror
but the only thing i see
is the shell of a broken angel
an angel that once was me
am i cursed to be like this?
will it always be the same?
as soon as i am happy
i get played like a game
i wish that i could shrink away
down 4 inches and hide
that way no one can hurt me
and see the tears i cried
but alas that cant be done
and who would want me if it could
who would want this little angel
whos broken wings are no good
would you take me in?
and carry me away
stick me in your pocket
come and save my day?
hold me in your hand
and not let me go
never letting me fall to your feet
and the cold floor below
i know that i aint much
and my wings are all tore
my body might be small
my heart alittle sore
but dont let size fool you
my hearts as big as they come
even though my body
is a couple inches bigger then your thumb
if you want this little angel
just pick me off the ground
i aint that hard to find
listen for the crying sound
i can be yours
if you chose to be
but then again who would want
a broken little angel like me...

Jesse Jaymz

So tonight I'll ask
The stars above
"How can I ever win your love?"
What can I do,
What can I say
To turn your angel eyes my way...

This is a very sad poem.  You put all of yourself in everything you do, and sometimes it ends up being painful because what is placed is sometimes within the hands of those that cannot be trusted.  You are a good person, with an even brighter heart - remember that.

Jesse,this was so sad and if I could I would pick up that broken little angel and give it back its smile.I really enjoyed the rhyming in this and the sentiments.Since I can`t pick the angel up I`ll just send another one to you.

There's another broken angel out there feeling the same way and wondering when someone is going to pick her up. You'll meet her one of these days.

God bless America, my home sweet home.

Jesse - a sad one for sure. Have felt the same, but hang in there. Peace be with you.

I hope you don't mind, but I copied your poem 'Somebody Elses Angel', and played it on my guitar. Of course I don't know how it is suppose to go, but I did a tune anyway. I like it, very much...

I’ve been there, I’ve felt this. You’ve written the emotion very well Jesse. I hope your angel finds its match. With a heart as big as yours, I’m sure it won’t be long.

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?

This is such a heart-wrenching read!  How could that little angel be overlooked?  Anyone who can't see past the size and broken wings to the essence of the angel inside is missing something great.  Every little angel has immense value for who they are, not what they are, and so my friend, do you.

oh how sad my dear lil angel.......you know that we all like and love you the way you are. Life isn't easy and sometimes lonelyness and sadness seems to win from all the happiness......but know that there are a lot of people who cares about you lil angel.

((((warm hugs))))
