Wingless Angel
Stuck with the cast, still gives a helping hand
Quivering as a outcast, can't get out of the quicksand
Offers hope but feels hopeless
Offers happiness but feels helpless
The more of the steps taken
The deeper the knife is driven
Trembling at the sight of it
Mortified to move with it leering
Petrified of peeking at the pit
His hairs rise with his heart withering
It can be painted over with a vibrant paintbrush
The more the brush covers the more he yearns for it's touch
The relief is smeared across his face
As he admires the taste
Knowing it is temporary
He shivers as if it is Doomsday
Life isn't fair to anyone
he had to learn the hard way
Hides because of what he has to pay
He can't see what has been portrayed
