Angel In Beasts Clothing
Can you separate the human from the beast in your mind?
Be kind, even when it hurts;
Be strong, let them do their worst.
See through their lies and know that deep down they are simply posing,
It is here you will find compassion for the angel in beasts clothing.
For, they know not what they do and know not who they are,
They care not that before you met them, your heart had one less scar.
The rules are consistent with their minds constant change;
Adding chaos and madness to an already broken cage.
Pray that the inside of you will always match the out;
And that the faith within your heart be enough to soothe any doubt.
May you show love to the ones that hurt you and not be scared to walk away.
For, the beast does not want you, although it begs for you to stay.
As you turn and walk away lift your head with pride,
Know, that each step you take heals your own divide.
So, be kind enough to walk away even when it hurts;
Be strong enough to walk away and let them do their worst.
For you are the only one who can save you from the bitterness of their loathing;
And in doing so, you might just save the soul within the angel in beasts clothing.

Here I am, and here I'll stay;
Like the moon in the darkness that refuses to fade.
Clouds will cover, but cannot take from my reign;
Mark this as the moment that they realise, as they scoff with distain.
They fell asleep, I cannot be blamed.

What a beautiful message so many lines struck a chord with me but Pray that the inside of you will always match the out stuck the most.
I am embarrassed to say this is the first piece of your I have read....It will not be the last. ' They care not that before you met them, your heart had one less scar.' What a beautiful line
