Fallen Angel
Everything you've loved before
Disappears like those wings of yours
The feathers you always believed helped you soar
Fall away through a cloud which pours.
Everyone you thought you knew
Move on cause they've all long replaced you
Not even memories matter, for they're nothing new
Slowly truth seeps into your wounds so blue.
Everything you've loved before
Betrays you like dreams with how they come & go.
Those angels you thought helped you soar
Show their true natures you hoped you'd never know.
Everything you ever have been and are
Simple as bright & glowing
Like a shooting star that has come so far.
You see now, it was never them, it was just you shining.
