Even Angels Can Fall

Even Angels Can Fall

A Poem by Draven

With my tears falling fast

I leap down from the bridge

and my fears fade away

as I descend from the ledge.

Crashing down through the air

my white feathers fall free.

Even angels can die

and now the whole world gets to see.

 

All I see is her face

with her warm loving smile

while I bask in her glow.

But this love is futile.

Now I leave it behind

as I go to my death.

I can feel her soft voice

as I take in the last of my breaths.

 

Oh these feelings I feel,

you can't say they're not real.

for they burn in my heart

and they break me apart.

All I want is her lips

to be pressed against mine,

but I know in my soul

our lives never will be entwined.

 

With my tears falling fast

I leap down from the bridge

and my fears fade away

as I descend from the ledge.

Crashing down through the air

my white feathers fall free.

Even angels can die

and now the whole world gets to see.

Thanks bro
Even angels can fall.Its the hook line, and you streched it well holding it last through.I liked the soul and lyrical essence.It spreads the ambience of sadness that gradually ceases to end.In every your poem I can make out the same idea but with a different outlook.Your piece enchants to read it again.KEEP WRITING

This is adorably dark in a way. :) I love the lines "Even angels can die and now the whole world gets to see." A very good write I do say.

This is top notch. I love how you take the readers along with you instead of just telling them about it. A very touching piece as well.

Very emotional tinged with such sadness, lyrical notes, and lovely imagery... his last moments not even fallen, how dreary especially since he can never be with her, well penned indeed :)
