A year ago today one of my closest friends went to the hospital because his cancer had come back, he was like a father to me and so I worried about him a lot. I told him to hang in there if anything went wrong, the worst part being he had been very sad when he left...That night he died...
I had written a poem for him on that very night and I just lately remade it.
My Angels (The original)
They all misunderstood
The things that are good
The rage against freedom
The war against love
They break our hearts when we need them
They disown their own blood
So tonight I'm sending you my Angels
Their big wings will block out the sun
One will drain all of your pain and illness
And the darkest flies by with a sword and a gun
His mission is to strangle
To stab
And to shoot
Weaken so they cannot run
Stab so they die in torture
And shoot so their faces will never be recovered
This Angel also takes the soul
To burn on the undying coal
We can watch them line up to the slaughter
Father
Mother
Son
And daughter
Tonight I send you my angels to catch you when your falling
To wipe your tears away
Their right there in the shadows calling
Just close your eyes and the pain goes away
I'm sending you all of my Angels
For
I cannot be there at your side
But do not blind yourself to my Angels
They were sent to me and I have not lied
Do not be fooled by my Angels
They may seem dark or in a disguise
But they are like me
Here for love
Restoration of the unhappy
And punishment to those who lied.
My Angels (The Remake)
Father, please don't cry
This world is not worth your tears
When you leave your heart open
It will always get broken
Cruelty can't mend a thing
Memories waited for you until you were alone
Pain filled your mind and you just...
Needed an escape
When she was the only way...
Tonight, I'm sending you my Angels
I know you need them in your weakened state
Father, don't give your heart to the world
Don't give it all away
My Angels will wait at your side
Where I cannot be tonight
They will take away your pain
Father, please don't cry
Tonight, I'm sending you my Angels
To catch you when your falling
To wipe away your tears
Don't blind yourself to my Angels
Let them keep you safe
...Father, please don't go
You promised me you'd stay
Just let them shelter you
Let them hold your hand
They will take away your disease
Drain the paleness from your face...
Tonight, I'm sending you my Angels
Father, just dont let go again
They can save you
It doesn't have to be the same
Father, I'm sending you my Angels...
R.I.P Michael, I miss you.
