Wounded angel

Wounded angel

A Poem by Rebecca
"

a poem about people meant to be angels

"
Sad wounded angel sitting on a chalky white bridge over all those cold steal buildings
The traffic is buzzing, people are tied to their phones and demons are screaming screaming putting
dirty thoughts in your heads, you think it is mental illness
There is a poison heart pounding, like cats jouncing just struggling to get tomorrow
An angel looks down sadly, holding this pain in a silver tear
Wounded angel crying for all this destruction, the chassis for all of this
these things we were born for
An angel is hitting the gym not to lose weight or gain muscle but to be
strong enough to pick up the world for a little while and protect it from demons
Yeah God can do it alone, but why not light up the world a little there, angels from God there
to say goodbye to the demons hanging at that place you go to
in the mirror where you are too skinny or too fat or you need that alcohol or that ciggerate
or that emptiness that buzzes buzzes and you sit in traffic to go to a white office
and sit there forgetting who you were born to be
all of us were meant to be angels
sitting on a bridge above that office smiling,
then leaping and flying across the orange red fire sky and burning heavenly fire
and destroying the demons that keep wounding all the angels
So I fight, so I fight, and go on, and go on
Because it is all I can do,
I sweat and bleed for this, I cry and leap for this, I train hard and smile and
study for this and I train my mind and my soul to do this fight
All these wounded angels, all these broken people broken to remedy
all of these broken fallen people
lighting up at God's Name
just because
that is the only thing to do, to fight and believe
