Cries of an Angel



I hear the cries of an Angel

Unearthing her shattered remains.

Her life stifled by unforgiving ailment,

Thoughts of Blissful surrender with

Each laboring breath.

Her lungs fill to capacity to

Re-establish composure,

A constant reminder of a fragile existence,

She sighs passionately, embracing life.

Victorious, she eludes the Bone Collector

Stalking her frailty!

Cool line, but how about chaning the victorious to vicious and show that angel's tenancity?

Great poem though. I like the imagery.
