Okay, so since everyone is posting poems, I figured I'd post the lyrics to one of my songs to see what you think. You can find the actual song here:

"Angel's Ashes"
Lyrics and Music by Ryan Zohar

Falling softly into darkness
I feel you reaching out to me
but you can't save me
Everlasting night eternal
bring me now to your ethereal throne,
I'm so alone

Did you hear the words you spoke to me
How did they sit inside your empty mind?

Now I've come to see I'm
never gonna fly away
wings of ashes leave me without choice
when you burned me at the stake
you tore my soul out of my mind
and left me without a voice
Angel's ashes

How can you be so kind to me
after all I've done to destroy you,
I can't keep you
everfading night eternal
leave me now in all my ecstasy,
of misery

Did you hear the words you spoke to me
they're so easy for you to swallow

Now I've come to see I'm
never gonna fly away
wings of ashes leave me helpless
when you sacrificed my heart
you destroyed me from inside
now my own pain leaves me breathless
Angel's ashes
