She was the most beautiful woman
That my eyes have ever seen
She will remain in my heart forever
Though she no longer needs me

I found beauty in her heart
And in the way we touched
Her warmth mixing with mine
Oh, I do miss her very much

I can remember everything
Her blue butterflies and angels
They always flew around my heart
Have I past into the lost ages?

I found beauty in her smile
Cheering me up when I was blue
Loving her all the while
Does she think about me too?

I wonder if she reads my poems?
Or ever thinks about calling me
I remember all our loving moments
Does she sees me in her dreams?

Everything about her was beautiful
That beautiful face and soft skin
I was waiting for life to begin
I fear that we will never touch again

I Found Love In You
Then I lost it again

Pray tell, is this weighed-down mortal
allowed to borrow your angelic wings?

Can such a grounded soul learn to fly from your all-or-nothing example?

If I keep my promise to follow the endless strings of love to the bitter end

Shall I then perhaps come close to seeing the birth of a new sun, the very first breath of the open sea?

Will you care enough to embrace me in this unbearable lightness of being?

You don't have to say either yes or no

Just tell me it is possible...
I fall down.
Into the Depths of Hell
My fate said to be justified
I found myself locked
In the chains of torment.
The truth came to light
Thus
I was repaid. Because
Missing a few debts
Karma found me
This is the way that
Justice was given to
Those who were right
Blessed and grateful
Towards the haven of heaven
I rise up.
This is my first attempt at a reverse poem. I'm not exactly sure if it works but it made me as proud as heck for what I did.

cannot publicly acknowledge the existence of angels,
Such an outrageous act has been outlawed by the council.
So here I am to tell you about these nonexistent beings.
They come from a place called heaven, a serene place
Lying in the clouds that do not fade; they are everlasting.
In heaven they soar free, using their feathery wings,
Which glisten like scheelite in the eternally dawning sun.
Their halos are a gold, 10 carats more pure than the element,
And seemingly glow, even in the most minimal light.

And their souls, as pure as a diatomic gas,
As white as the everlasting magnesium flame.
But most importantly, their souls glow like the firey sun,
Always ready to make us happy, and eternal in existence.

But I once again forget, as a note is passed my way,
That “angels,” in fact, “do not actually exist”
Signed,
The council.
It also says to stop talking about these forms,
Or I will be detained... then executed...
Welp, that’s a sour note to leave on...
Bye.
If anyone has listened to the podcast Welcome to Night Vale, you’ll know where my inspiration for the denial of said winged creatures. If not, listen to it, it’s a funny sci-fi comedy podcast. Also again, look up any names that you don’t know, chemistry is pretty cool too.

The devil has an angelic grin
As he holds your hand in secret
And whispers sweet little nothings in your ear.
The devil has perfect skin, striking eyes,
And a jaw that could have cut
Your wrists better than you will ever have.
The devil will write you poems
And speak to you in rhymes,
Fleeting little words,
Just to keep you from breaking apart
So he can keep playing
With your already aching heart.
The devil will come
When you are at your lowest.
He will come
with an outsteretched hand
Promising you heaven on earth
But, he will let go of you
right before you reach the top.

So you pull yourself up
like what humans do
in the face of adversity,
And when
you are on your own way to heaven,
Only then shall you meet your angel

Your angel will not have wings
To whisk you off your feet
And bring you to dazzling sights,
But he will have a smile
Brighter
And more beautiful
Than any scenery.
Your angel will not look how you imagined him to be
all chiseled up and perfect like a Greek statue
But you will not be able to look away
From that crooked smile
Nor tear your hands away
From those coarsely cut curls.
Your heart will be full of his love
And you will feel safe
Perhaps
Even feel heaven on earth
perfection isnt always good
