Even Angels Fall

Loss, longing and witnessing your desire slip away.

Into the night you gently concede
I held you in my mind
For I refused to believe
All of the matters that truly came to be

Grasping at straws I put up a final stand
Against your heightened walls
I never stood a chance
If even angels fall
Where did I ever stand?

Empty and battered as an old navy hull
Try as I might
How could I stand tall?

The mind was made up
For right or for wrong
And the fuel was provided
For just another psalm
