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!

Oh Coyote this one touches me to the core... So many prey upon the gentle and broken..just for the pleasure of inflicting more damage..I will never understand that ... I'm.glad your poem found two, who were not so...This was beautiful and touched me deeply ... Thank you ( :

Some ppl get lost along the way in life and need someone to pull them back to earth. They need a helping hand. Fears and anxiety can make people lose their way.

[Norma M Sutton]

Friendship is the best of relationships IMO.

[Thomas Fitzgerald]

My divine man, you always pluck at the emotional strings that lay deep within my mind, a talent all it's own, well done, great piece! x

This poem is beautiful man. I especially like how you used a vast array of vocabulary. I feel that we all must go through the bad in life, but when you have someone to walk with you.. it makes it all the better.

[Tina Kline]

A wonderful and very positive poem. How nice it would be if the world would extend a helping hand that was really a helping hand. Friends and family are more important than they realize and could help so much if they only understood. For some reason they just don't.

[Tarry Franck]

I agree with The Scholar - Bittersweet! Great read and "Walk with a contaminated man" - like that a lot!!! Great job!

[Cathy Wattam]

There are a few errors but actually, aside from those, this is a very good poem. A true friend is one who can walk with us despite our challenges and weaknesses, someone who can just 'be there', without judging us. A very thought-provoking and inspiring write. Thank you.

[Ezekiel Silver]

Great poem! I like both the message and the imagery to it. I hope you'll come up with more poems like this one!!!

[The Scholar]

This was so good, and simply beautiful. There's so much truth in this poem; it isn't so hard and yet it sometimes seems so incredibly hard to say a kind word or hold a hand. Great mixture of sorrow and joy. Bittersweet.

Any grammatical errors were unnoticed due to the poem's beauty.
