Embraced

We embraced

A broken angel

of a darkened time

and a devil

of a hateful line

Charred black wings

lovely white things

a painful kiss

too long of regret

A broken angel

crying tears of blood

Painful cuts

gone

are his white wings

Blood riddled back

of a broken king

poor

poor

charred wings

of a

lovely queen

This is a wonderful piece here.

Good use of colour and the connotations that those colours come with !
The very limited but precise choice of words is brilliant, it creates just the right atmosphere,
Good work

wonderful poem. the mythical feel of it belies the true emotions felt inside. It has a wonderful flow and tells a great story that has deeper meaning

I like it, each line feels like I'm being stung though. It's quite a painful poem. I like "lovely white things" I don't know why though hehe, I guess it's the reprise from dark, painful images to something light and hopeful

This is perfect.
Such vivid detail, it gives me chills.
