Angels fall in painful silence Feathers fall in slow descent The downy rain with no pretense Coats the earth in a soft blanket Like snow it falls. Crimson stains the downy surface. First the white now the red. Blood it falls as war goes on. Light against dark, good against evil, Right against wrong. Where is the line between the two? What is light and dark? No visible difference to discern Both believe they are in the right But to their origin they return. There is no black or white, good or evil, Right or wrong There is only nature, itβs a double edged sword Dangerous on both sides. You cannot destroy one without destroying the other. Balance is lost, pain is red But who are they to say what to feel? Death closes in on ebony wings Angel of sorrow, Angel of fear, oh Angel of death. I welcome your Embrace. I long to escape the war Infested world drowned in sorrow and blood. Death is the only release. I lie here dying, dying but unable to die. What is this? This curse of immortality? I long for a mortal life, a mortal death. Fate it seems is cruel too in its nature For I will watch many fall before I do. Angels fall and demons reign Death upon death. Pain upon pain. Just surrender To give into death. They have won Demons reign supreme Many fear what this will mean Head my words, take my advice, To surrender is pointless, To die is meaningless, To live is to suffer.
I don't know what inspired this one, to be honest. I wrote it when I was 15 and bored in class. Take from it what you will.
