Have you seen my angel from behind the glass?
As she weeps her tears turn to liquid diamonds.
Amazing is that her sorrow can be seen by the blind.
I reach out and touch the cold surface of that glass,
Where our two hands would hopefully meet.
There seems to be another obstacle to block our love.
No words could describe the anguish felt.
To be so close, yet so far
and from the heavens my angel tripped and fell.
Welcome everyone to the freak show,
The mindless, psychotic horror show.
Where every nightmare is made real,
stepping into a reality only I knew,
stepping into the side show attraction.
The rejected, outcast of society.
Step through the curtain let your imagination take flight.
For there is a fallen angel behind the glass
and there before you is your better half.
The room grows quiet as hecklers make their remarks
judging those whom they do not even know.
I have shed my fair share of tears,
known pain, suffering and even sorrow.
I still look for that bright spot on what will become tomorrow.
As the lights come back on,
my angel behind the glass is now gone.
To the heavens, no one will know.
Just to be by her side is where I would go.
Yea,
I think it is blank verse?
Than again I could be wrong.

Anyhow,
I liked this.
The way you switched it up in the second half.
Nice. ^.-

Blank verse, I seem to recall vaguely, is dominated by a repeated similar rhythms in the lines, this is open or free verse. - the word even adds nothing, the emphasis is controlled by the writer - absent the cliches, this is superior to your rhymed poetry - speaking as an editor - Lady A
