Crying Angel that fell from the sky

       Why are there tears in your eyes?

Why are there bruises on your skin?

Why is there blood running down your arm, leaking from your wrists?

Fallen angel you look prettiest when you’re mischievous

A small smile curled up on your face

Fallen angle that came from heaven why are there scars on your mind?

Suppressed memories and oppressed feelings 

Fallen angle it’s okay to rest on me

I’ll wipe away your tears

I’ll hold you close so you can let it all out

I’ll pick the tiny thorns from your wings so you can stretch them out

Glow in radiance, don’t let these vines hold you down you can still find your way back up

Fallen angle ascending back to heaven why are there still tears in your eyes?

Don’t look at me like that we both knew this time would come

Don’t clip your wings for me

Let my silhouette fade into the tree’s darkness 

Fallen angle sent to me from Heaven, why are there tears in my eyes?
