Contest entry for Stormy's Poetry Newsletter
#2113999 by Chris Breva


Prompt words: "angel bottle mirror road demons wings struggle within"

I always thought I found an angel in a bottle
What a demon it turned out to be
It took me straight down a road unwanted
I traversed there for years
My wings broken like those of the angel
As I struggled with my pain
I hated the person in the mirror
I wanted to kill the evil within
Little did I know the answer was there all along
It waited inside me
Somebody helped me find my answer
Now my spirit soars wild and free.
