Array ( [sid] => 110025 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Long to Fly [time] => 2005-11-19 13:23:50 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Hand me back my halo
Repair each broken wing
Redeem the graceful words
This angel longs to sing.

Un-cry the tears I've cried
Brighten my sky from grey
Put some hope beneath my wings
And I'll gladly fly away

Unstitch the smile I've sown
Make a face pure perfection
A gentle mind and thoughts
With joy in each reflection.

No burning crimsom tides
No craving for the knife
No voices cursing silently
'A pathetic, worthless life'.

Reason my existence
A reason just for me
I'm searching with blind eyes
That's why i can't see.

The light too far to reach
Temptation far too strong
This angels falling slowly
But I know I'm often wrong.

So regenerate my faith
Put sight behind each eye
Mend this broken angel
And gracefully, I'll fly

Long to Fly

Hand me back my halo
Repair each broken wing
Redeem the graceful words
This angel longs to sing.

Un-cry the tears I've cried
Brighten my sky from grey
Put some hope beneath my wings
And I'll gladly fly away

Unstitch the smile I've sown
Make a face pure perfection
A gentle mind and thoughts
With joy in each reflection.

No burning crimsom tides
No craving for the knife
No voices cursing silently
'A pathetic, worthless life'.

Reason my existence
A reason just for me
I'm searching with blind eyes
That's why i can't see.

The light too far to reach
Temptation far too strong
This angels falling slowly
But I know I'm often wrong.

So regenerate my faith
Put sight behind each eye
Mend this broken angel
And gracefully, I'll fly

It was lovely..

the rhyming scheme was really on, syllable for syllable which i find really attractive to read in a poem.

the flow was not only good but the depth was there... good job. (:

Brilliant, one Of the best I've read on this site yet. My only issue is the term Un-cry, It just sounds a little too....made up. Keep up the good work.
