Graffiti skies seem far too distant, an angel nearly naked without wings;
Heaven rejects, quite barely reflects; and its Hell that acceptance brings.
A decision made, without the faculties of choice - freedom is never free;
Evil shall embrace the child of scorn, the angel who would rather not be.
Priority corrupted, propriety confused, an angel then succumbs to doubt;
Barred are the doors to Heaven, and just as heartlessly, Hell reaches out.
Mortification may be masked as mercy, amnesty accompanied by abuse;
An offer hardly ever meant to oblige, an angel who just could not refuse.
Each breath reeks of sin - somewhere, somewhat, an angel somehow fell;
Heaven’s outcast is wretched, and condemned to the many curses of Hell.
The divine be damned, when wilting whites wane amidst a beastly black;
Conceived courtesy cosmic conflict, is the angel who could not turn back.
Deserted by discretion – if unable to stay, an angel yet unwilling to leave;
Heaven learns to punish, and in reciprocation, Hell administered reprieve.
As a testimony from torment, deliberating against those afraid to commit;
Promoting a sense of prejudice unbiased, the angel who would not submit.
With wisps of wile, then tendrils of tact - accommodate an angel aberrant;
Heaven could believe elsewise, and rightfully, but Hell is astutely adamant.
Distorted, distracted, distended; psyched beyond these confines of regret;
Amidst those that struggle to remember, is this angel who could not forget.
The renegade will resist the rigours of religion - an angel immune to belief;
Heaven shall then cry tears of tribulation, and Hell ought to celebrate grief.
The want of a faith without even believing, is more impulsive than implied;
Exploiting the potence of every shadow, is an angel who shall not confide.
Alone, and in more than just every sense of the word - an angel set apart;
I really ought to have expected the otherwise, rather than blame my heart.
Struggling to look beyond the obvious, even beneath the supposedly true;
Searching within, eyes forced shut, an angel who would find none but you.
