GATES OF SPLENDOR part II

An angel comes towards me singing

an ancient arcane lullaby,

peace and comfort never bringing,

only joy in dark supply.

"Banished child of heaven jaded,

you think you hold life in your hand.

But those illusions are soon faded;

you're slave to what the Fates have planned."

"That world is pain!" I shout, I cry,

"I can no longer walk that path!"

....."So you cut loose your soul to fly,

.....and risk incurring heaven's wrath?"

The god of love shattered his vow,

and made me walk my road alone.

How much of this could I allow;

I did not sin, I won't atone.

  1. Ah, yes, it is forbidden to take one's own life no matter how great the pain of this world.  Your very words sing of heaven denied in a voice pure with bittersweet beauty. The question does become "How much of this could I allow".  I await, with great anticipation.  Thank you.


  2. "and, Jesus wept."

    Kudos.

  3. A nice continuation in which I sensed a falter in meter, then realized it may only be in the pronunciation, well done fair princess.

  4. Fate has its own story.

    thats its job, and it doesnt care

    about the pay.

    ya, stand strong..

  5. ... and is this a search for something... or has she/he found it and no one else gets it? I know, only by you telling me, what it is about... now I want to look deeper and see what it's TRULY about...
