The Angel Rose Again
She was famous for her face-
Bright, wide eyes
And a broad smile, so excited
But the ground swallowed her up
And what happened… they all asked
What possibly could have happened?
They could wonder all they wanted
But she was never going to open up-
They’d never see what she remembered
Because she saw faces and finally understood
That bad things happen because people do bad things
So when she rose again- people also do brave things, she learned
She left her armor up to those who’d hurt her
Through a blaze of summer sweetness I rose
Through a blaze of winter ice storms I fell
And through my own dream I rose again
The words are painted on her castle walls
For her to see and everyone else to learn soon enough
The angel rose again
But she was unrecognizable
And shock waves followed her steps
For when she rose- her face changed
She was a princess crowned the queen
And was never the same
Locked away with only those who loved her
Every step of the way
The angel rose again. And she kept rising.
