The Arch Angel

The Arch Angel

She is crying again

The girl sits through the night

Tears stream down her beautiful puffy face

How much can she take?

She might grasp grip

She looks at her face in the mirror and

Sees an ugly with no body

A spirit who might try to posses her

She is pushed near the edge

And starts screaming for help

And prays to Arch Angel

"Where once I saw a cliff

Descending down I wanted

Single I was

With no one helping

The rising hand from below

Is offering to start pulling

HELP ME BEFORE I JUMP"

Author's Note

In life words are important when persons commit suicide they go to hell because it was the demons voices that convinced them to join them.

This sends such a powerful message! This just shows how improtant and how serious depression is. You showed that it is important to look out for the ones we care for the most and that every bit of life counts. Life is but a thread of yarn. One snip of those sharp scissors and it's gone. Thank you for writing this wonderful piece of poetry, and I look forward to reading more of them!

Thank you dear writer for your valuable interpretation and insight. Being here has taught me that I could write introduction of monologue style as poetry form with a message.

Thank You

This poem definitely has an impact on me. I remember when I was sixteen that I wanted to commit suicide. I was depressed. I was bullied and made fun of. My mother didn't want me. I wanted to end it all. Demons were definitely dragging me down but I got through it somehow. Thank you for this. It reminds me that we are never alone

Hi Dear Jennifer, I truly do appreciate your insight and sincerity of those teen moments when we are most vulnerable.

I think that maybe the demons inside the bullies were trying to do that to the Angel inside of you and am glad that you didn't let them.

[Coyote Poetry]

Suicide, a hard subject. Sometime people are on the edge and no-one knows. A powerful poem. Left something for the reader to think about. Thank you dear Poet for sharing the excellent poetry.

Thank you Dear Coyote what I was trying to do is I was trying to set an scenario as an introduction to a monologue of what a person might be going through at those moments.

I know I have a lot to work on and I will continue to try and do appreciate your support.

Oh my darlin. A stunner! What an image..this gal in the mirror! Dont we love lookin at ourselves when we cry..? Here, lookin at why shy cry..love the line..grasp grip..yes!
And this archangel verse..so elequent you put our demons seduction off of that ledge and into his pit.
I am manic depressive..have had times where that arm got very close. We locked hands once..i died on my living room floor and had to be intubated...i left my body. Darlin, i was not goin to hell. I was sick and sufferin powerfull hard from a disease of my mind.

I love this piece..indeed, you are a poet.

Love and wishes of great joy
Calamity of Jennifer

Thank you Dear Calamityofgin Poetess for sharing that experience with me and I am very happy that you know that you are destined to Heaven.

I like this, there is definitely material for a poem in these lines "We locked hands once..i died on my living room floor and had to be intubated...i left my body. Darlin, i was not goin to hell. I was sick and sufferin powerfull hard from a disease of my mind. "

dark time always come and goes and the whiter the soul the easier it get stained .
the weaker the light the more thicker the shadows get .
your writing is great and inspiring how can life head to a place with no sight , what's left is taking a step out of this world

[SquinklaPsyOps]

Thank you for your valuable interpretation dear writer. I really like the following 'dark time always come and goes and the whiter the soul the easier it get stained ."

This is so sad and accurately shows the feeling of a suicidal person. Seeking help at the right time in such a state is every important though the person does not find it easy to voice their feelings to close ones. Well penned.

[SquinklaPsyOps]

Thank you for your valuable interpretation. And you are correct, the protagonist in the poem was told that she was not pretty by an invisible voice and that her parents did not like her, and the good thing is that her parents that loved her saved her on time.
