~Dreams of Eternity~
...
Broken Angel
I wrote this poem, fairly recently...

Sweet truths slipped through a crack in the wall
Sweeter lies whispered through the weakest line of defense
You knew…somehow you knew exactly what to do
Be…
Say…
And silently…so silently…an angel fell

Down
Down
Down
Deep into a joy like she’d never dreamed possible
Deep into a love like none she’d ever known
Far from cold
Far from loneliness
Far from despair

Wanted you
Needed you
Confided in and believed in and trusted you…
Loved you…

But it fell apart before she could hold it together
Slipped through her fingers before she could tighten her grasp
Left her before she could fully embrace it
Silently…so silently…the angel fell

Down
Down
Down
Deep into darkness that would never see light of day
Deep into pain that would never know a healing touch
Far from life
Far from love
Far from heaven

Far from you…

Used by you
Wounded by you
Cast aside by and discarded by and forgotten by you…
Destroyed by you…

There was no reason why
And she’s not the same now

Wings clipped
Hope stripped
A shell of what she once was
A ghost of what she should have been

There were many before
But none that shone like her
No doubt there will be many after
But none that hurt like her

With a smile and a light in your eyes, you were a gift of life
Then with a grin and a farewell wink, you were a bringer of death
Night falls
A tear, then another, and another,
And silently…so silently…the broken angel still falls

Omg, Dawn...It's a very depressing but wonderfully written poem. Please tell me that this poem does not relate to you???

So sad...I hope and pray that this did not happen to you, Dawn. You deserve sooo much more than what the world has to offer...

Beautifully written poem, yet very depressing. I do love your poetry, Dawn, however, I will go completely insane if this has happened to you or if it ever will...

Dawn, you are very much loved by each and every one of us. We care soooooo much about you. Don't you ever think that you are alone and will never be loved...Yes, you are an angel, a heavenly one, indeed, but we will never let you be broken. If this has already happened to you, I am so sorry...

Dawn, this poem is so sad...I am soooo sorry if this ever happened to you. You do not deserve such treatment if it has. You have inspired us to shine our colors for the world to see, now please, shine yours ever so brightly...

Oh, Dawn...were you crying when you wrote this? It seems like such a wonderful but yet depressing poem. I pray that this will not ever happen to you and if it has, I am sorry...You're a wonderful friend and individual...don't ever forget that! ^_^

Oh my...very sad...this better not relate to you!!! You are not one to be broken! You are an amazing friend, you don't deserve this...

Hmmm. You have a very impressive way of sorting out your thoughts and emotions in words through a poem...Dawn, I agree with all the others. You are very pure at heart and deserve so much.
