Cry Angel

By Snowborn426

Atop a hill
Of sin and pain
Was sent a boy
Without a name
For his delight
Upon the edge of night
He called for an angel
To save him from death



To the boy who cried angel
Save your frightened song
For those who hear you
Shall not believe
No one will save you
You wear the sinners crown
Scream your heart out
No angel will come down



Atop a hill
He felt no guilt
For the lies
On which his life was built
For his delight
Upon the edge of night
He called for an angel
To save him from death



When the clock struck
His darkest hour
The serpent shown it's face
As he began to drown
In his growing fear
He raised his arms to the above so clear
Searching for the angel
But found a starless sky

    Sounds very frustrating. An unheard plea. Nicely done.

    cutting it would work. apostle has a point though, the last line throws off the rhythm.

    I honestly really liked it until the very last line, it seems out of place, blackness dosen't sound right in this poem

    Thank you, i appreciate any feedback. Do you think it would be better to just get rid of the last line or change it to something else?
