Echoes of Angels : Poem

This is a poem I wrote a few years ago. This is one of the poems that is in my self published poetry book. I hope you all enjoy it. I want to get back into sharing my art as well as my other art and photography.

You hear the echoes of the angels who have left you wandering the streets aimlessly never stopping at stop signs

or stoplights

Never stopping for fear of falling behind

So you fall into limbo with the rest of the world

But…..

We are all puppets

Masked to others perfection

with the perception others view us with

We are no longer humans

We are toys that others only use when they want to

and then we are left abandoned when they are through

We are actors

in this messed up movie

with crappy roles and costumes

with fake smiles and fake tears

and you are….

Fabricated to hide all the baggage that you hold onto,

because you can’t let go of what could have been,

Taking granted of what you have been given

You dream of the Utopia that you will never find

and drift into sweet oblivion.
