Angel and Devil

An age old battle I am watching,
With flaming interest again.
Who wins who loses - Angel? Devil?
I feel for both, I am terrain.
.
Result of battle is important.
But is it Only what we seek?
Or maybe deep inside we searching,
Where we belong to. Isn't it?
.
Angelic life is so righteous,
And most of us look up to it.
The Devil's fire is magnetic,
In Earthly life some get too deep.
.
Are those "labels" that we follow,
Because somebody is watching us?
Or our true nature is unshaken,
By all affects and sits in guts?
.
The Good or Bad. The wings or fire.
Did I miss something - Black and White?
Oh no, thanks God - life is richer,
A whole blown rainbow is above us.
.
Our Earthly life - full of temptations.
And there's reason for this design.
The Angels - soldiers. Are we? - No.
We not recruited but we choose.
.
So, every battle 'the two' are waging,
We not the only ones who watch.
The faithfulness is not by order.
Experience, make educated choice then move.

Russell,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
