A man of 19 looks for a quick way to die <br />He gets on his knees and begins to cry out <br />The Suicide Angel hears his pleading cries <br />He knows the man will take his life without a doubt <br /> <br />This angel banished from heaven, not wanted my hell <br />A patient angel waiting for the next one <br />Perhaps a mother or father praying to the dark angel <br />Or perhaps a depressed daughter or a suicidal son <br /> <br />An angel with wings of crimson red <br />No halo for this fallen son of the most high <br />His wings stained with blood from the dead <br />As he poisons his victims hearts with devastating lies <br /> <br />His heart is as black as charcoal <br />His eyes dark blue as if he was dead <br />He carries no burden of regret or a sole <br />His lips as dark as his eyes upon his head <br /> <br />You may wonder who this angel is <br />If he is real or only in your nightmares <br />Whether you’ll survive or feel his death kiss <br />If he is real of is just another legend used to scare <br /> <br />Would you believe me if I told you <br />Who this angel could really be <br />Would you call my statement false or true <br />If I told you this suicide angel is me<br /><br />Patrick Shields<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/suicide-angel/
