Even Angels Cry

its hard to evade a broken heart

Even Angels Cry


Storm clouds are gathering most surely it will rain

someone's heart has broken even angels feel pain

odds are stacked against us to make it all the way thru

without being subjected to suffering how about you


has your heart been broken did you draw the short stick

when sure things came undone fooled by a magicians trick

you never understood how things came so unraveled

now you sit all alone your mind completely frazzeled


I guess there are no safe bets no guarantees in life

you throw the dice you gamble cut by loves sharp knife

but would it be more wise to never have loved at all

to eliminate the chances of ever heading for a fall


I don't think you can appreciate the wonder of a kiss

if you run and hide in your own internal abyss

it's alright to make mistakes and even wonder why

but don't forget you're not alone cause even angels cry

Gomer... all I can say about this piece is... top notch my friend! Great write. And you know me, being a song writer, I may just have to steal that title and evolve it into something musical! Thanks for inspiring!

The last two lines are my favorite. Each of us has felt the sting of it at least once in life. The abyss is company for misery for a while. Your words ring true.

Angels are everywhere, seen and unseen. Some don't know it, others don't show it. But it's true. Angels do cry. Even through our human strifes, we are blessed to have those watching from the skies. Well done, in capturing the chances of life.

Beautiful sounds like a song and i know you can make it one if you haven't already.
I like it because it makes me feel like i am not the only one who sometimes cries.
This is different for you .. i am used to your humorous pieces, i like both.
