Devil With Angel Wings

Devil With Angel Wings

A Poem by Travis Prino

You were not the answer to my prayers

you were just the remedy to the loneliness I bear

and how was I to know

inside you were beautiful

and how was I to know

falling for you would cost my soul


fly away now

my devil with angel wings

fly away

so I can bleed out my insanity

cause you made me

all but crazy

but I won't let you go


you were not the solution to my problem

you were just a quick fix to the boredom I'd adopted

and how was I to know

inside you were so cold

and how was I to know

I could feel more than alone


fly away now

my devil with angel wings

fly away

so I can bleed out my insanity

cause you made me

all but crazy

but I won't let you go


you were not the princess I imagined

you were just a riddle with no end that I could fathom

and how was I to know

inside you were in control

and how was I to know

you'd leave me miserable


fly away now

my devil with angel wings

fly away

so I can bleed out my insanity

cause you made me

all but crazy

but I won't let you go


the stabbing in my chest won't last for long

just until the shock sets in and takes over

and you were never one for saying goodbye

so stop pretending you weren't living a lie

the fear that kept me here has gone away

cause you have taken everything from me

what started out as just another fling

has broke my heart and left me suffering


fly away now

my devil with angle wings

fly away

so I can bleed out my insanity

cause you made me

all but crazy

but I won't let you go


in my reflection

I'm guilt ridden

heart stricken

pain driven

love afflicted

but I'll never let you go.
