Her golden wings are tarnished
With her infected blood of hate.
All her dreams of love are missed
When her wings started to fray.
The obstructing clouds of the sky
Darken with all of the angel's lies.
The sun no longer shines bright,
Because the moon sheds its light.
The dazzling stars start fade in their brilliance,
As the beautiful visage loses its resemblance
To what was once a semblance worth beholding
And never ever worth forgetting.
Yet, the angel forgot her beauty
When her wings started to bleed.
She forgot, because she didn't see
That her beauty has aged to be
As ugly as the inside became to me.

The Tarnished Silver Lining
Her golden wings are tarnished
With her infected blood of hate.
All her dreams of love are missed
When her wings started to fray.
The obstructing clouds of the sky
Darken with all of the angel's lies.
The sun no longer shines bright,
Because the moon sheds its light.
The dazzling stars start fade in their brilliance,
As the beautiful visage loses its resemblance
To what was once a semblance worth beholding
And never ever worth forgetting.
Yet, the angel forgot her beauty
When her wings started to bleed.
She forgot, because she didn't see
That her beauty has aged to be
As ugly as the inside became to me.

Jennifer,
first of all, you are beautiful on the inside. that part i have no doubt about. as for the fading of the suns light because of the moon, sometimes the sun blinds us with its light and the moon reflects the light of the sun for a clear picture. i thoroughly enjoyed this write. you are truly an angel sent from heaven above.

A powerful poem, which seems to represent a negative inward perception. The poem is beautifully written. The good thing about "tarnished silver", it can be repolished.
A great poem,
Will |

| Lovely write. Seemed sincerely done, and in such an imaginative way. The last line here was delivered with a high degree of skill, something which I've pretty much come to expect in all your writes, and have not once been disappointed. That second to last stanza really spoke to me, reminding me of things in my life personally that I wanted to forget, but are not at all worth forgetting. This was not only a great piece, but it also spoke to me, which made it that much better. Hopefully, this isn't a poem about yourself, and if you did come to this conclusion, ask around and I'm sure you'd get a different answer :P Great write! |

Well done...this has the feel of an introspective write. Perhaps angry or sad (or both), with some decisions, or lack thereof, in the past.
Coming down hard on yourself for a past that cannot be changed. This is thought provoking, and emotive.
Very good job Jen.
Scorp. |
