Katherine Belt

How many tears have you shed,
the crystal stars that dot the sky?
Your wings are bound and broken,
no one will hear your cry.

Oh! They will hear your screams!
But listen they will not,
a shattered soul, my fallen angel,
and the heavens that you fought.

But who chooses who is to blame?
I will unlock my soul, but only for you,
for I trust in your mistakes,
and I trust in what is true.

My fallen angel, born with broken wings
that simply will not mend,
and you can't soar to the heavens
on the back of wispy wind.

Did pride proceed your fall?
Was the rebellion only you?
Do they sit and mock and watch
as you drown in crimson hue?

But I will listen,
I will bandage your wings.
Your tainted soul will glisten
as a reminder to the kings.
