Shadows of Night Jan 2016
Cast out of heaven,
For having a heart of darkness,
Not accepted into the depths of hell,
He's told that he has a heart too close to the light.

In between,
Neither white nor black,
Caught in the middle,
The colour grey.

He's the darkest angel in heaven,
He's the kindest demon in hell,
The wrong side of righteousness,
The right side of despair.

He's made a world of his own,
Rejecting the light, turning away from the darkness,
He's made a new definition,
Of the word 'broken'.

He's beyond saving,
So he's saved himself,
Pulling himself up,
Standing on the line of good and evil.

(Inspired by
a lifelong stranger)

These chronicles slinked from her chassis
– the mythomaniac;
she sold every copy.
Stories only fabulists could ink,
sealed within her schticks.
She enthralled every reader;
her cossets: spellbinding.
The husk of an angel
masked
THE Pariah within.
Caped in pretense,
lidded,
she skulked.
The blossoming killer…
Come
Hither.

And yet.

Your web of lies was spun so thick
It's you,
up there,
Ensnared.
You wrote the rules, cunstructed the game, invited the whole world to play.
But in the end
it was YOU
who
lost.

I'm an angel in disguise
You just can't see past
The broken wings
At a time when i was the epitome of sadness
When my tears could sing the blues....
Tears no better than my cracked lips

The Herculean task of my agony trying to make love to beatitude...
And so they agreed to disagree
I was left to my own fate

But i whispered a prayer to GOD
For Archangel Micheal

He looked into my eyes,saw the terror
Why!!!! I felt him
Delving deep into my heart and life
Building up all the broken pieces
Fighting a losing battle: but VANQUISHED

A smile redeemed...

Angel Micheal; my gift from GOD.....

Angel
My angel
Won’t you sing your sweet song
Fly with me far
And stay all night long
I’ll hold onto you tight
Wrapped in your wings like snow
And everything will be right
Until one of us must go
Tomorrow
Tomorrow
I’ll see you again
We’ll gambol and descant
Remember until then
It is my heart you enchant
My heart you have won
So angel
Sweet angel
Know you are the One.
Good morning my Angel

We rise
only to fall
angels
gone to ground
in the sweet loam

honor the bones
let silt become
the raw clay
to re-form
our souls
We fail, we fall, we learn, and are reborn...
Beauty all over
No one cared to notice
Open your eyes
The title is from a poetry book by Ismael García Santillanes, a book I so often pick up for a pick me up.
Hope you enjoy my haiku and the title I felt like flowed with the best after days of thinking of one.
You are all a indelicate angel and that's what makes you special
Crysta Gingras Jan 2016
I feel like an eagle
Who has jumped off a cliff
Like a stray dog
Who’s tail is held stiff
There was no rhyme or reason
Nothing to make life worth living
Then you show up
And every girl’s tripping
Be mine! Be mine!
They all scream and shout
Tearing their clothes
And flopping about
You reached for them not
And kept right on through
Till there was no one else standing there
Just me and just you
You helped spread my wings
And I learned how to fly
Found the stray in me
And my tail became spry
Our joy may it grow
As our hearts become one
Those other girls can go
They’ve all been outdone ;)
Good morning my Angel
