Description
And the red angel sleptIn her garden of whispering flowers
In her peaceful suicide
She slept
And the fire burnt her fingers
The rain put out her lighter
As she raised her spirits high
Fearless of crashing down
She was fearless of running into pain
And as if the world
Had stopped its spinning
Darkness descended
On every crying child
Hope was lost
Hope was gone
Hope was hidden...
There was nothing
There was no one
To ease the painful hunger
To step onto the needles poisonous
Drawing purple blood
From lack of oxygen
Your ceasing to breathe
And something crawls
Something scratches at my ceiling
And something tears
Providing itch
Useless and daring
Quiet and thinning
I can see you
Reading by the candlelight
Reading to the singing birds
Unaware of death
Are shot down
By MY song
Don't fall to sleep
It's early yet
Don't lend to dreams
What you could have lived
That it didn't have
To hurt this time
Healing scars
A calloused heart
Running out of strength to bleed
And shhh...
It's the music
That sounds so SILENT.

1.) its different from everything else people write about
2.) It flows very nicely and the ending is quite dramatic, but well ...placed...
and
3.)And as if the world
Had stopped its spinning
Darkness descended
On every crying child
