Fallen Angel

Your hate has locked away my heart
The key is lost and so departs
My mind with all its happy thoughts
My attempts for love are all for naught
A shell outside to you I seem
Inside my soul, in pain, I scream
In stone is set my saddened face
Hate, doubt and fear replace
Innocence, love, curiosity
Trapped with only apathy
To guide my actions and what I say
I only seek to end this day
Sleep has never been so dear
A brief respite from daily fear
For what the next dawn may contain
Death sounds sweet yet I remain
Now grown strong, I still endure
Torture that my mind conjures
The demons of my dreams preside
Every night they make me cry
Infact this night did I wake
To share these words I partake
But grown I am, father figure to some
A vow I swear to them and everyone
That no matter from whence you came
Or who you are or what's your name
I will protect you in times of strife
Innocence is precious, its worth my life
So in your eyes, distant I appear
But be assured that while I'm here
That all things that exist in peace
Are guaranteed to be released
From troubles that I may perceive
I will save them, only I will grieve
I wont allow good people downtrodden
To lift up those whose souls are rotten
But when I leave you must allow it
For plagued I am and I will not bestow it
To any others, just live your life well
And know that you have a guardian angel
