Angel's Tears by ~lighttigersoul:iconlighttigersoul:





Where do angels turn when they need
guardians to keep them flying?
What secret haven can you find
to keep your broken heart trying?

The end has come, Heaven trembles
at the world's most sorrowful fate.
Mortals cry, love drifts away
disappearing in clouds of hate.

When friends turn to foes before you
and the Angels shed their tears,
Where do you turn when angels cry
over hopes they lost for new fears?

Where do angels turn when they need
guardians to keep them flying?
What secret haven can you find
to keep your broken heart trying?

When nothing seems alright to you
And you are left without a prayer
What secret haven can you find
do lost dreams still linger there?

Even the Angels need to fly
to find a place to hide their face
when their friends turn and they lose faith
where can they run in this cruel place?

Where do angels turn when they need
guardians to keep them flying?
What secret haven can you find
to keep your broken heart trying?

When the shadows darken, someone's
willing to sooth your aching heart
to dry away your falling tears
you're not alone, although apart.

Hold onto faith until the end
whatever hardship falls your way
There will be a hand to guide you
to help you on your winding way.

Where do angels turn when they need
guardians to keep them flying?
What secret haven can you find
to keep your broken heart trying?

Okay, this poem is. . . interesting in origin. Truthfully, what I want anyone who reads this to take from it. . . is exactly what they want to take from it. I presume nothing of belief. This could very simply be metaphor, or literal, I won't tell anyone what it is. It has a meaning for me. And I've already discovered other people have different meaning applied to it.

Please enjoy.

Very nice.

The wording is wonderful and you really captured the feeling.

We all need someone to lean on now and again, it's an interesting topic. Who does the person we lean on go to for support? Perhaps we can lean on one another?

Anyway, I like the poem. Keep writing n.n

So, I have a pretty good idea about this one bro. Not a bad poem. A bit sappy but that was the entire point, wasn't it? Just don't forget that not all guardians are lovers.
