Red Fiery Poet Free verse

The Angel Cries At Night

'The Angel Cries At Night''


I  heard an angel speak last night and he said ''write''
and bring enlightenment to  this dark place,
the hollowness that prevails
breaks my silence
I writhe in agony
to see the despicable dead 
restless and infuriated
daunted by their  formidable grave
they long for salvation...
My stagnated beauty is futile...
Alas ! I cannot restore their lives..
the dead leaves pay their homage
where the ALIVE one fails to visit...

Michael Wayne June 14, 2011 at 9:31 PM I would love to hear the symbolic meaning to this.....It was less direct and mysterious in nature. May your beauty grow forever....producing more precious life. Red Fiery June 15, 2011 at 10:58 PM Now you know that....
