The Above

The Above

A Poem by Shoulk Laurens
"

where do we look?

"
from above an angel was sent.
sent down upon us to bring us the peace that we have been searching for
who was he, but crude.
his angelic essence was split between what we know and fear.
far beyond our imagination and thought yet still comforting.
somehow that is the face of what we love, yet we scare away.
because we become afraid of what it is we seek.
what do we seek?
peace?
love?
does it matter?
for his essence is everywhere.
and it is why we live.
have you ever wondered that?
why we live.
why we keep fighting.
the answer is in what we seek.
can you see it?
or will you stay fearful and look away?
his face is horror. but... so unthinkably beautiful.
