Fallen

An angel's fall from grace.

Falling and falling through the tumultuous air

Battered and bloody on the ground with stinging flesh laid bare.

Lost in the swells of agonizing pain

As waves of anguish wash over my brain.

Sputtering, drowning, in a deep sea of despair

Heaven doesn't want me and Hell doesn't care.

Doomed to be trapped in this hellish limbo

Caught in a web battling with unseen foes.

A cast down angel with wings broken, scared, and alone

Darkness prevails with no light around me shone.

No warm sunlight upon my face

No peace or solace from my fall from grace.

Just a soul that's lost and doesn't belong

Like the misplaced notes in a beautiful song.

Monsters lurk in the shadows and demons abound

My lack of strength will they quickly surround.

Clawing, gnashing, wounds opened, again and again

Fresh scars will serve as reminders of my battles with sin.

Alone to carry my burden of indignity and shame

A lowly pawn in a sick twisted game.

Grappling, clinging to hope ever since I fell

But finding no escape from my writhing Hell.
