When Angels Call?

When Angels Call?

A Poem by Harry Mora

Through the course of this tortured existence

I've given up on every dream

My heart's been pierced by this doubt

And I'm much too weak to scream


I can't see through the darkness

Like others seem to do

Sometimes when lost in my sadness

I think that I see you


But the angels won't call my name

In this night I'll be alone

Searching blindly for my home


The angels won't call my name

Disappointment comes like rain

I know that I'm to blame


I think, "Will they ever know me"

Will I ever cross their minds??

Will they feel what I am saying?

Memorize my every line


I can't see the lights above me

Like others think I should

Sometimes, lost in the moment

I really think I could


But the angels won't call my name

In this night, I'm all alone

Straining to hear your tones

Angels won't call my name




There's a knock on the door

And the music fades

And the tape stops running on the songs we made

I can't see the bright lights

As we pack up all our gear

Everything I just dreamed of

Disappears into my fear


And the crowds won't call my name

On this stage I'll be alone

Trying to give up all this pain

But the angels won't call my name

The music won't ever play

Sitting quietly at home


Through the course of this tortured existence

I've given up on every dream..........

To say the truth this makes me cry. You know at one point I wanted to give up. But if you, stay close your angels will come back. I have many. I really love your work, you are really gifted like Wayne ---mishel
