I Know the Look of a Heart Broken Angel

You lost your love I see it in your eye
I watch as your feathers fall as you fly by
You’re usually filled with joy and happiness
But your tears flow down with heavy stress

I see you living in your own personal hell
Now I know the look of a heart broken angel

You were left alone betrayed by a lie
Now I fear your wings will never touch the sky
Your good nature is blocked by sadness and pain
Its sung in your love songs refrain

I see you living in your own personal hell
Now I know the look of a heart broken angel

You lost your job as a guardian of a soul 
Now true love can only once again make you whole
So brush yourself off when it rains it pours
Ask yourself was this lost love really ever yours

I see you living in your own personal hell
Now I know the look of a heart broken angel

So float and watch and wait eternally on a cloud
Sing of the hope of a new love to heaven out loud
Be ready with an open heart when it comes to call
Know that this experience makes you more human after all

Lost love is a great poetry theme and you did justice to it Kevin. Your last line is wonderful and wraps your poem up beautifully!
