Demons .vs. Angels

by Lenny   Dec 22, 2005


Forgotten dreams,
Savage past,
Broken angels,
Die at last,

Vicious Demons,
Again released,
Create a path,
To the deceased,

Swollen egos,
Swallowed pride,
To cut your throat,
From the inside,
Slice your soul,
Tear your heart,
Force your mind,
To fall apart,
A destructing mass,
Of featherless spite,
Feasts on your conscience,
Day and night,

Until dead angels,
Are resurrected,
As your dying faith,
Is at last detected,

The final battle has,
Been announced,
Your title as ruler,
Has been denounced
The coming war,
Shall choose your captor,
The precious Angel,
Or merciless raptor,

Your unwilled coma,
Blocks you out,
You have no view,
Of the ongoing bout,
As feathers fly,
And wings are torn,
You lay unsuspecting,
Eyelids drawn,

One day later,
Blurrily you wake,
And slowly recall,
What has taken place,
A forgotten smile,
Returns from your past,
As you realize,
You are free at last,
The feud has ended,
The winner clear,
Both foes defeated,
Their reign ends here,
Finally justice,
Has been attained,
And you now boast the crown,
That is your pain.

    Nice take on your conscience,.. I really didnt think of that connection til the last line (a lil groggy) but it was a good poem, indeed.. so effortlessly do you create a rhythm and mold the words into it.. it's amazing how effortlessly you manage to do that.. Not once did the flow slip or falter.. It can apply to many things, but what especially draws me to this is that I firmly believe we must conquer ourselves, overcome our fears, etc, before we can really be content,.. I'm workin on that.. One qualm I kinda have (and may hold no merit) is that it seems your imagery is sparse,.. It was good and solid as usual, but not as lucid as some of your others, somehow.. good work, nonetheless,.. and sole = soul*... pZ out =O)
