ANGEL

It`s bedtime now
You have survived
But bruised and beaten
You lay in bed
You`ve taken your punches
One more time, one more day

So rest now angel
Dream sweet dreams
Cause tomorrow knows another way
To brake you down, blow you away

But don`t be afraid
I`ll be there
To hold your hand and walk with you
And if we fall, don`t let go
We`ll both give in and let them win

So rest now angel
Dream away
Dream about your final day
Then all your wounds won`t hurt no more
And mockery don`t mean a thing

Life`s a game we can not win
We beg forgiveness for our sin
And soon will see the last cruel day
Then all bright birds will fly away

So rest now angel, get some sleep
Tomorrow you`ll cry your final weep
You and me will always be
We`ll walk together endlessly...

Once again...you speak of darkness with such beauty. This poem really touched me...but please understand my friend in the dark...that life doesn't have to win and the prize is worth more than the loss.

                Yours truly,
                   Angel

humming madly
filling my head
with blood
and sorrow
and dread
the executioner's song."

Darkly beautiful, can I ask is it about a child?  

 May the world hug you today,
With it's warmth and love.
I pray it whispers a joyful tune in your heart,
That tell you there is a friend sitting in another corner of the world,
Wishing you well and
wishing you love......

Thanks for the replies, it`s good to hear at least someone listens. But no Isis it`s not about a child, I`m both the Angel and me. Angel was my imaginary friend when I were younger. It may be hard to understand, but since I didn`t have other friends I had to make them up so my parents wouldn`t think I was such of a loser. I called her Angela. And if I die, she dies to. "And if we fall, don`t let go. We`ll both give in and let them win"

Thanks

Broken~ this is so very sad. I didn't have an imaginary friend, but I did have a teddy bear that was my best friend for a while when I was young. This is a great poem. -SEA
