Notes About The Poem

Image result for sad beautiful photos

Fallen Angel

*Inspired by photo

Fallen angel forlorn
Broken hearted, spirit worn
Seeking only to hide
Unloved, until feelings subside
Fallen in the empty field
Vulnerable, without a shield
Overcome by flights of confusion
Only feeling heartbreak's contusion
A hole that cannot be filled
Resides within all the tears spilled
Let it not be true, depth of despair
Stealing the last breath of air

Oh it s really sad and at the same time you have written it really beautifully, this can also be used in other sense like a person who s feeling different from others, a feeling you are differnet feom others and surround by peoples who are not friendly

I think at one time or another every one feels this way. It is nice to know that some one else can feel the same way. I hope you are doing well.
