The Angel

The Angel sheds tears as she sings
A song so sad that it stings
The children were taken
Their innocence forsaken
The weight of their cries on her wings

How did the world grow so hateful and cold?
Compassion traded for bars of gold
Greed for the tallest tower
Drunk on their lust for power
For coins their souls were sold

Her wings trembled with anger and ire
She confronted the kings of the empire
The men would not yield
Every one of them she killed
Their palaces destroyed by fire

Title undecided...

The mystery of perception is subjective
What one mind conceives
Another mind disbelieves
Conflicting worlds with a different objective

Individual fates intersect and intertwine
Creating infinite conclusions
And endless illusions
Confusion, the infection of all sentient minds

Souls hold the essence of all truth and intent
Minds explore the unknown
Cynical of all that is shown
The soul is eternal; the mind forever discontent

Thanking all of you

Since my diving back into interacting here, I'm not feeling so alone anymore. You're my peeps and I'm finding an outside sense of community.

We are Patriots united against tyranny and saving our democracy. I am proud to be in the ranks.



Edited to add that I've found a spark while living amongst the dark red, uneducated, in a backwards town. I still have hope for my community- hope is stronger than fear. I hope they wake up soon.
