Angel's Lament 

Darkness fell upon locked gates,

Falling slowly, lying in wait

Searching for souls to claim as its own

It lies in the shadows of its home

The people, they're scared

of darkness and more

they fear what's in it,

fear what is in store

They can't help but cry then

at their own demise

the only saviour they knew

was cast aside

He watched from his haven,

from his own little place

where his wings were bound,

with no further grace

The angel watched in horror and grief,

as the sorrows of pains that never were said

made their way up to his own little reach

Crying was wanted yet no tears came

The angel watched in silence

never to help again

The darkness has taken everything he held dear

now all that is left is a sinking fear

without people to save, to help, to free

'What would happen to poor, old me?'

At last a tear, warm as it fell

made its way down his face

and into a cave of dying grace

forever to catch, forever to rise

Until the angel would drown,

in his tear ridden eyes.
