Where Did All the Angels Go?

sorry we haven't posted in like forever and a day! oops. Here is a poem!

Where did all the angels go?

There is this one big monster

Creeping in the dark

You may not always see him

But – be warned- he always leaves his mark

You’ll see it in the dulling eyes

Of children growing old

You’ll see it in the lack of smiles

Or the fake ones so I’m told

The monster – he is a phenomenon

Molded from the souls of men

Somehow each day growing crueler

Yet to the eye everything seems so zen

This monster, he hides in the shadows

Playing this game that is his trade

Murdering minds of mortal children

Making the light in their eyes fade

He will bite at their skin

And with each whispered word

Leading pure victims into sin

Somehow along the way

The pain begins to grow

Like flies –innocent souls dropping dead

Pain too much for a child’s soul to tow

Although there are many angels

This monster steals the soul

And even to those strong enough to last

Picking up the pieces takes its toll

Then, one day, we will see, we will ask

Where did all the angels go?

With their shielding wings and saving grace

Where’d they go?
