Angel

angel, angel, angel of 
death

who are you hiding from
if not yourself

slinking around corners
dodging the shadows

angel, angel, angel of
death

seeking what is coming
or trying to escape
cannot think how you
got this way

angel, angel, angel
of death

are you looking for 
someone that i love

angel, angel of death

take my hand my angel
of death for i am not
afraid i have always
felt you so close

Wow--a bit dark but powerful none the less. The imagery of lines 5 and 6 really stand out in your poem. I see this is your first post in awhile. Welcome back to The Soup! Keep on writing! Karen
