Torn Angel

We must be kind to people. Enough negative folks in this world.

Torn Angel

My  broken Angel.
Please smile for me.
Stay with me at the sea all night.


Your world has fallen apart.
You don't know right from wrong.
Desperate acts had left you feeling
dirty and insulated from everyone.


Please take my hand.

Walk with a man who swims in s**t most
of his life.


There's no angels on this Earth.
Only us struggling to make amends.


We all must do things we are ashamed of.
The world isn't clean anymore.
Not enough helping hands.


There is no pity for the people in plight today.
I know we get fatigue and humiliated to
believing we are worthless and destitute.


My wounded Angel.
Please take my hand.
Walk with a contaminated man.
Jaded kisses and broken promises had
left me empty.
The not so sweet taste of life has turn me bitter.


Sad Angel whispered.
"I'm a dumping ground for men
who want to use and abuse.
I don't mean much to no-one."


I  touched her face.
I told her.
We must ascend from the malingering hell.
Leave the one's who want you  begging for mercy.
In a shadow of our memories.


There is  no easy road.
Sometime we must get up.
Tell the world to back away.


Find a better path to be on.
Kinder people.


Torn Angel walk with me.
Take my hand.
The new day is rising from the East.

From the beginning to the end, this inspired me... We have times when we feel worthless, and when someone is there to hold our hand it helps ease the pain...the walk of life is so much better when we have someone kind enough to show they care. Lovely write!

I feel exactly the same way. There are no angels protecting us. Just ourselves and others. But it's how we look after each other that matters. We must all find a better path even if its by myself or with others. J'adore!

Coyote, there's not a word I would change. This is wonderful. I love the line "Torn Angel take my hand" This was an absolutely amazing write. Friendships born of one reaching out to another.

Showing kindness makes the world a better place. I think there is way too much crap on the TV making us see the worst sides of humanity. If were to talk to each other more, have to meet and touch more people we would see that really, there is a lot of kindness still in humanity. Maybe I'm an optimist. Anyway, it is always such a great pleasure to read your work my friend!

This poem is So on the up and up! We all need a friend to lend support and just be there when things just don't go right! Excellent poem.

This piece truly does speak to me, as I'm feeling like a torn and jaded angel myself lately. You are very kind to reach out to her. This poem speaks very truthfully and artfully about the way in which humans seem to treat each other. The lines
"There's no angels on this Earth.
Only us struggling to make amends." portray this best. (Although "There's" doesn't make sense here as it reads 'there is no angels'. "There are" or "There're" would probably read better.)

I do love this one, a lot. I'll add it to my library so I can read it again later.

Thank you for your kind words. Each of us learn to walk more softer and be kind to people in our life. I do believe there are angels. We must open our eyes to see them.

I've lost faith in a lot of ways, but this poem offers a light in the dark. I needed this, thank you for writing such strikingly meaningful words. Profound and beautiful.
