Fallen Angel

Single, silver thread…

Dangles in the light of false pretenses,
Mocking the hope of fallen angels.

Peers pass aimlessly…

Ignore this filthy entity,
Visions impaired by bliss less bigotry.

Piecing words hit directly…

“Reeking of **** , you make me sick”,
Tear these bandaged wounds wide open.

Experienced apathy flows freely…

Stagnant rage rises with tears,
Pushing free past her walls of hypocrisy.

She responds…


I stand before all
In judgment of my life.

Fillet my worth, sear my pain,
Build your lies until I’m drained.

Dry as dust I will blow away,
Away to a place where fallen angels sing.


In the end…

Deaths bed comforts her,
Alone she cries tears of absolution.


Single, silver thread…
Trickles down from heaven
Single, silver thread…
Singing carols with dead brethren

Fallen angels never make it to heaven

Oh wow, Josh, this was beautiful. Oh wow, I'm going to go read the others now, because this was great.
Saved!

Courtney,

Thanks for the response and I am glad that it inspires you to read further.  I hope that they live up to your expectations and if not then maybe some helpful suggestion will get me there.

I have 11 pieces posted and they not all in Dark Poetry.  I would suggest doing a find on my name if you really want to get a good sample of my various styles.  or see (Open, Corner, Dark, Prose, Mature, Poetry Challenge).

Thanks Again,

Joshua
