What is purer than snow <br />And falls frequently <br />Falling silently <br />From her <br />She sits above us <br />And watches our sin <br />What she sees scares her <br />And tells her what humans are <br />Her wings are a pure white <br />Adorning her back <br />Her white robes glowing <br />Making her appear innocent <br />She is pure, she is kind <br />But her eyes show sadness <br />She hears our jealousy <br />Our greed <br />She's afraid of what we've become <br />She wants to help <br />But when she tried <br />She was torn apart <br />Her wings grew grey <br />Her robes black <br />She can't stop the sin <br />So she'll destroy it <br />She is now an Angel of Death <br />Once fragile and kind <br />Her other side locked away <br />Adorned in chains <br />This Once Innocent Angel<br /><br />BlacknessRose ...<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/once-innocent-angel/
