Upon angel wings

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Upon angel wings,

you carry me.

my burdens,

you embrace.

Life,

lived in the shadows of others.

pain there in my mind,

you saw.

gently,

holding me.

caring while the rest looked away.

You'r strong hold,

steered me through the storm.

being my eyes,

when I was blind.

stubborn,

indeed i had been.

Yet,

you never strayed,

always knowing what was right.

Upon angel wings,

I learned to see.

the world changing,

shaping into something new.

Light now shines,

giving me warmth.

As you try to walk away,

tears streaking down your face.

Strength you gave,

I now will return.

For while you gave,

you lost so much more.

Sight gained,

showing me your pain.

truth comes out,

my time has come.

you weaken,

as the days wear on.

my heart trembles,

but hands stay strong.

swiftly it comes,

rain pours down.

 one tender glance ,

tears fall freely.

night,

of great sadness.

to say goodbye,

and fly upon angel wings one final time.

Beautiful! ~ This has such a calming feel to it as i read... peace comes to mind. And you make me remember how i often think of death. THis is comforting and i love it. Death is nothing to be afraid of... we shall all reach there but we mustn't fear the unknown.. ~
Such strength this has! I'm glad. Thank you!

It's one of the most beautiful poems I have ever come across. Speaks of so much original love and longing and the subliminal pain of it all... It's a great work; inspiring and so touching. Thank you for such a lovely poem :)

Amazing writing!

The image works wonderfully with this and the opening is just beautiful. Perhaps even beyond that in some regard. It tells of a journey in which on has or had helped you. Wings to help carry you high and help you forget the life you once had. To be carried off to a new place, a place to start over new. This angel is hopefully someone truly special to you, or else they wouldn't have helped you like they have. Great words :)

Angels are selfless, giving and protecting...the gentle love and embrace we feel, is our angels carrying us. This is beautiful!
