Angels

White skin covers her pale skin,

blonde hair falls on her narrow shoulders.

She may be an angel, but she has her own sins.

She grows paler as she grows older.

On the outside she seems fine,

but even angels have things to hide.

She captured his attention, later captured his heart.

Even though he knew she was trouble from the start.

Love works in mysterious ways,

but his faith was shaken day after day.

She never stuck around with anyone long enough,

find someone to love was impossibly tough.

She had built a wall around her cold heart.

But he was determined to tear it apart.

What he failed to remember;

is even the devil was once an angel.
