Fallen Angels

The corroding of morality

Descending eyes piercing starry nights
Deeper yet, unto hearts of men
Thresholds crossing shattered darkness
Behold, the fallen angels unbeknownst to sin

 

That of weakest appetites malign
As heaven's tears spilling city streets
In futility cleanse what's evil-wise
From beneath, us vagabonds are tending broken wings

 

Empty rooms sleepless, desperate shelters loneliness
Weary hearts for yearning error in love
Far off stares and more blank faces, harrow in oasis
And inspirations forgotten, never peering up

 

Divine light ceases upon what's closing heart
Earthly flesh feeding frenzies
To another peace in faith withdrawn
Humanity continues on and spirituality dies ending

 

Some pretentiously fly wayward to false sanctuary
Never escaping whispers or persecutions within
Hissings softer, but brimstones in our head
Countless fallen angels iniquitous deprivation dins

 

"Town Criers" define us as the times most desperate
"God, forgive us, please" hollow words that we pray
"The wicked must be punished" God's law eternal now and tomorrow
His arms outstretched further still but, where are we today

I notice that the world often leaves you disappointed. we must share that opinion. I think that this is my favorite piece so far. The picture drew me in first...one of my favorites as well ....but it is your words that kept me. I think I held my breath through the whole of it. I could hear orchestra music playing in the background...totally entranced. KUDOS!!!
