Literature Text

White wings you had,
Perfect and pure.
You soared among us,
And your smile brought us light.

But now those wings are bound and black,
In chains of blood and death.
You can fly no longer,
And you cry out, pleading for help.
But they watch, oblivious.
Smiles and laughs in their eyes,
They send no aid.

You sit and watch us.
There are tears in your eyes.
You are broken, bleeding,
Death is not far now.
But no matter how dark you become,
How far you fall,
How deep you plunge,
You are my only angel.
I was washing dishes and this just sort of popped into my head. That happens a lot. But usually it's not a romantic poem... or a very good one...
What do you think? Can anyone put it to song?

This is really good! Are you still looking for someone to write a melody?
