The Awakening

Sad eyed virgins screaming their silence
to glaring Christs calming the violence
devils awaiting their new arrivals
innocent angels motionless on pedestals
untouched mortals awaiting their birth
to a new day a new world with unforgiven earth

This is very unique and different. I really like this one as well. I like the "silence" and "violence" part, I don't know if I could have thought of that. Enjoyed. Take care. Dana'lynn
