Like a day without sunshine

Her whole world fell apart

With wings torn asunder

And pieces of her broken heart

 

When her God left her crying

And her soul left to die

She looked to the skies

Walls breaking inside

 

Like a day without sunshine

An angel’s flowing tears

Berate her cruel and unfair maker

And quell the fallen’s fears

 

Wings ripped from her shoulders

A sign of unmaking

She gazes at the heavens

As her heart is breaking

 

She calls out in anger

Hoping one will hear her plea

That once there was redemption

That there will once more be

 

Empty cries upon empty ears

No one hears her souls lament

It gives her pain when no one cares

Just like when her wings were rent

 

Frail hands raised in supplement

Fresh blood on her skin

She prays for forgiveness

And to be let back in

 

And on a day without sunshine

The Heavens unleashed

On one poor little angel

Of different belief

Wow, it looks like there are no comments but in fact there are three. Great rhythm, though i think one or two stanzas ((is that right?) had a bit of trouble. And here's my nit:

'her souls lament' - unless this beautiful fallen angel has a lotta lotta souls, there should be a ' there to show possessive ^_^

but other than that, my breath was literally taken away by the first three of four stanzas/paragraphs/things. So beautiful, seriously. I felt so much for tha poor beauty. Why did she fall?Yay! Only one typo. ^_^ Thanks, Nomi-chan. Hey, where have you been?

You write very good poetry.
Well doneThis is probably my better one, because I had an inspiration.

I like! The rhyme is nice. I think the meter is a tad bit off, especially in the first stanza... you might remove the 'whole' and rework the last line.... no suggestions for that one. But then again, it's a poem, so do what you like with it. Not like haiku... *shudders* *tried writing haiku here recently and about died*Zank oooooo..........
