What Man Hides In Scociety [their Reched Cause of Pain]

violenty broken wings bleeding restlessly upon the shattered ground 
twisted sharply to protrude with hallow bone 
white angel wings dripping blood 
hand prints in the snow 
where would an angel go 
but the world must not know 
hidden in disguise or death and lies 
what would the world do if they knew 
angels live among you 
violently wings ripped apart 
stopping angels shattered heart 
to bleed with bone upon the ground 
what now? 
-the angels must bow

Elaborate on this one Rain, don't quite get your point, although it may be a good point.Yours truly, Love, Moses Angels bowing before the world as Jesus was crucified, this would seem to be a valid point! Angels do live among us, I have seen and talked to mine, as he stood before the doorway of my heart, and gave me my sword, taken from the alter inside. He also gave me a demonstration on how to use it, and it was very effective! Sincerely, Love, Moses

Greetings and salutations Rain: This poem says what I have been thinking, but could not find the words to express it. Anne Rice would be impressed. Only the best for you, Sheol

True angels don't need wings, that way they can't be broken. true angels just love, and yes they do walk among us, though for the most part they speak through your mind giving you warmer thoughts that don't reek of self hatred and failure. If you feel suddenly lighter and happier after a long spell of depression, chances are an angel spoke to you without you ever knowing, telling you how much He loves you. If you felt better it's because you chose to believe Him.
