I'd rip off your wings,
and steal you from heaven.
If I knew you'd stay with me tonight.

Showering me with idealistic compliments.
but we all know my battered and bruised body,
doesn't even begin to compare to your angelic flesh.

Stitching hearts up one insincerity at a time.
Flattering the guilt away into oblivion,
forgiving the damned while humming my fears.

Perhaps, I can masquerade as a saint,
just for a few moments,
so I can be closer to a angel.

you use punctuation!... apostrophes, even! I would fav you if I could, I really must upgrade... and I ask over and over, what is it that is red, as I read again and again... the moral subtlety here is refreshing, and the penultimate stanza is truly a gem

would love to count the ways it speaks to me, but alas, time's winged chariot hurries near... a true pleasure *bows*
