I wrote this poem, fairly recently...
Sweet truths slipped through a crack in the wall
Sweeter lies whispered through the weakest line of defense
You knew…somehow you knew exactly what to do
Be…
Say…
And silently…so silently…an angel fell
Down
Down
Down
Deep into a joy like she’d never dreamed possible
Deep into a love like none she’d ever known
Far from cold
Far from loneliness
Far from despair
Wanted you
Needed you
Confided in and believed in and trusted you…
Loved you…
But it fell apart before she could hold it together
Slipped through her fingers before she could tighten her grasp
Left her before she could fully embrace it
Silently…so silently…the angel fell
Down
Down
Down
Deep into darkness that would never see light of day
Deep into pain that would never know a healing touch
Far from life
Far from love
Far from heaven
Far from you…
Used by you
Wounded by you
Cast aside by and discarded by and forgotten by you…
Destroyed by you…
There was no reason why
And she’s not the same now
Wings clipped
Hope stripped
A shell of what she once was
A ghost of what she should have been
There were many before
But none that shone like her
No doubt there will be many after
But none that hurt like her
With a smile and a light in your eyes, you were a gift of life
Then with a grin and a farewell wink, you were a bringer of death
Night falls
A tear, then another, and another,
And silently…so silently…the broken angel still falls

My heart is forever locked away within the seals of blood and tears. I am left to wander this earth, alone...
