Tears of an Angel

Tears of an Angel


I don’t know how much longer that I can be strong,
This storm is so great, I feel like I am coming undone,
Winds wrapping around me, I can hardly breathe,
The rains breaking me down, tearing at the seams,
Burning eyes I have, that don’t shed a tear,
The weight upon my shoulders, I can no longer bear

What once was strong and impenetrable, these walls of mine,
Are slowly crumbling around me, dust into the ground
No longer able to shield myself, from all that’s going on,
A heart slowly dying inside, no longer filled with joy,
Sadness and sorrow have engulfed my very soul,
Sometimes I truly wish that I wasn’t here anymore.

Wings battered and bruised, fail me as I fall to my knees,
No longer able to glide and fly, enjoying the breeze,
Dreams that were once so real, burning to nothing but ash,
Are blown away with the wind, floating by so fast,
I watch them as they fade, all my hope is gone,
A sad melody fills my ears, as my tears finally fall….

Crying for what was lost so many years ago,
As the tears run down my face,
Crying for the hurt and pain, upon my skin,
All the bruises that no one can see,
Crying for the innocence that was taken from me,
All that is left is my memories and bad dreams,
Crying for the one that I prayed would come,
That hero who would save me from it all,

I wrap my arms around me sitting here alone,
Alone in the dark as always, letting my tears flow…
