No Angel

by Rich Brewer

You say you're "no Angel"

And we're left in a tangle

Words expressed with feeling

Still searching for their meaning


Does this give you a license so freeing

You can do whatever without stressing?
Responsibilities old and frayed

Distressed, dismayed and betraying

 

Keeping everything so tightly wound

Is bound to cause a rupture

Spewing the pain you strive the concele

...
