An Angel Appears

Ever since I was a child tormented thoughts like twisters ran so wild The wind outside my window whispered lunacy and lies The lightning slashed like strobe lights Burning bulbs inside my brain Thunder roared just like a teacher...calling out my name My cradle turned into a casket I was drowning in dark fears I looked and saw a light above That's when an angel appears Life to live as a loner...I grew up all alone My heart was hooked by hellions...twisting the truth and taking time wasting away in teenage wastelands tranquilty was leaving like a train I gave many gifts to many sorry and stingy souls Clocked out cold...running in the rain Soon the ice of isolation was freezing what was flowing Flowers they all died from frost...nothing new was growing Coughing and choking from the trails of toxic tears I looked and saw a light above That's when an angel appears Hurts they turn into hatred...some things still sacred Burning and baking Stirred up and shaking Betrayed and bitter Nightmares like nuclear winter Wandering aimless too many roads of ruination I see a signpost near the end of the line Like water turned into wine...eyes and ears now open wide I look and see a light above and all around Surrounded by serenity Everything is crystal and clear That's when an angel appears
