![]() Gabriel and HopeA Poem by IndigoChild![]() My characters mirror what i am not willing to admit to myself.They are parts of me that would scare away most people.![]() My heart beats In time to her unsteady steps
For the first time in my existence i am alive Her tears are something i can touch and cherish Her hands are something that belong in mine I can hold her and tell her that i love her But that voice always comes back The little monster that stole everything My brother His jealousy and rage tore away my power My wings Can Hope ever love a hollow shell Her snow hair and midnight eyes reminders of what was once mine No longer confined to that chair of mine i take my first steps The man who was once an angel in my head Has a heart beat I can feel it right next to mine I feel the pavement under my feet I can feel my legs supporting my body I am free to walk, run and love The love in my heart can finally spill Just yesterday i thought i was crazy I now know that my mind was guarding an angel Gabriel caresses my cheek Like my tears are crystals He holds my hands Like they are glass Yet i feel an evil Pulling my heart closer to his And deep down i am fighting Screaming and kicking So that i can tell him that i love him And know that it's me making my mouth form the words I am trapped in a cage Inside my self So Our Love was never real I can see her Fighting It's in her eyes There is hate there too Is it for me Or is it for the thing that makes me touch her I hate my hands because they touch her as a slave They contaminate what is our alone And make it a poison That will kill her later Brother what has your envy done to me now? © 2013 IndigoChildAuthor's Note
