Angels and Demons
A beacon of light,
A semblance of hope
Pitch black you wander,
You search and you *****.
There's a light in the dark
Just up ahead
Ready to help
And make sure you're fed.
Like a parasite
To a host
You steal the light
She becomes a memory, a ghost
Dulling her shine
Until she's a tiny flame
But it's her own fault, right?
No one else is to blame
Because that is her way,
The reason she's here;
To provide light in the dark
And beckon lost ones near
She shows them a way
A different way to go
Gaining nothing in return
No rewards to show.
There's a piece of her
In everyone she's met
They give her scars
So she'll never forget
And she'll keep getting hurt
Probably the same way twice
But lessons must be learned
And others' happiness will suffice
For she is strong
And can rebuild her light
Others aren't so lucky
And live in eternal night
The beacon of hope,
The light within
But don't let her fool you,
She's riddled with sin
She wants to be wanted
To not be so alone
To have someone to confide in,
Someone to call her own.
This man will add to her light
Not take it away
But she can't hide her heart
And patiently wait for the day
Patience is a virtue
But not one she can possess.
Keep letting the wrong ones in
Who couldn't care less.
Let them bring her down
Let them drink from her cup
She'll get back on her feet
And bring herself back up
And, in the end,
She will reach the top
And they'll gaze in wonder
To realize they missed their shot.
