Crying Angel

Crying beauties, I have seen a quite few
But I never thought angels could cry too
I thought angels are there just for cheers
I never knew angels could be hurt to tears
Yesterday, I saw one beneath a tree
As the tears from her eyes ran free
If only I can, I hope to take away her pain
And make her a cheerful one always to remain
 
It will more than fill my heart with a warm delight
To see her sorrow entirely swept out of sight
I know not of her offender yet I felt guilty
For she was one of extreme beauty
Words can’t get her beauty well defined
She was so flawless like something of divine
Though in tears, her eyes was sunshine bright
As if not for sight but to give out light
 
All I wanted was to kiss the tears away
And never again let her experience even a frown
Give her a sunny face which will forever stay
And place her where goodies abound
Yet when she raised her eyes to look at me
I longed as the tears in her eyes to be
For if I were the tears, I will roll down to her lips
Where I will settle even just for a moment kiss

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
