The Angel's Shadow Poem by Tyler Burke

The angel's shadow is in mind
It overrules it as it's shrine
For it's intentions speak so loud
But hidden actions, silent sound

It came from heaven unto me
And in my mind, it will deceive
I live two lives, but with one shadow
Along with me, yet whose to know?

Its adapted to it's host
My heart is split and it shall roast
But I like the newly thought
My mind shall live and never rot

Our mark is left on other souls
We fill the gap, those empty holes
We spread the truth and love alike
The love a river which flows with pike

One night my heart it felt a jab
The Angel left, I felt a stab
Turned on the light, began to cry,
But the shadow stayed, it was but mine.
