Fallen Angel Poem by soso khan

Upon my eye's
I see the night
The stars that blanket the sky
And a full moon that shines with life

Beneath thy wings,
Drips of my blood,
That has drenched the snow,
Around me

With no will to carry on,
My knees fall upon the snow
My face cupped in my hands
I shed tears of pain and agony

'Angel.. Why do you cry
Why is the snow red
Angel you have been hurt
This red... this is your blood'

As I took my face from my hands
I saw a little girl
Hair as black as coal
Skin the color of melted carmel

As she steped closer
I froze
my body trembling
She spoke words of pitty and sadness

'Oh Fallen Angel
You bleed from your wounds
Your eyes cry out for answers
But yet you get none.'

While weeping I spoke..
'Little one...
how do you know
I am a fallen Angel? '

'Not the markings on your face..
nor your wings,
Tell me what you are
But your eyes show the truth'

As I stood with all my might
I turned away from the little girl
I hesitated
but continued to walk away

'Angel...
Don't give up
I have faith in you
Faith... that you will reach heaven again'

I turned toward the Little girl,
my eyes filled with tears
And with a soft voice i told her
'Thank you, Little one'

When I finally turned to leave
walking away, it took great effort
My faith is what kept me going
faith that was restored by the little girl
