From up above (without the love)



From up above (written before I read the rules)

Soaring angles greet me from up above
Grant me, comfort from the slings of love
I cry for peace, the wings of a dove

Fractured, tormented with nothing to speak of
the words have been muted with an iron glove
Greedy souls plunder the treasured trove

So I cry to the angels from up above
My heart burdened, so heavy I must hove
Unto you, all of my misery all of my love

So I can live unencumbered of such worthless things
