Your Angel

Believe in what's within you

 This is the first poem I have ever written. I think it was back in the 7th grade. Hope you like it! 

There's a voice of an Angel,

In every being, every soul 

Some listen to, some ignore

Ignorant never feeling whole

Just striving for more, more, more

Following greed, cruelty, lies, and war

They had desires for love and lust

Chasing success, money and respect

Fools, do they not know will turn into dust?

Did not consider life's most important aspect

The pure voice was overpowered by the voice of Greed. 

God created all, let it not be in vain

Your Angel waters the flower of Spring

But an ant squished by your foot is crying in pain

Why would you care for the silly little thing?

You turned a deaf ear to the Voice of Mercy!

Wake up! Rise! Don't you realize?

Even the land deserves love!

She wanted you to stop it, to call a truce

But instead you shot the white Dove

Why Fight? Why Kill? Why Abuse?

Why listen to the Voice of War?

You fools killed a very special friend.

He fought against all evil, yet was never used

And we shall grieve for him till the very end

It stood for all good, saved the wrongly accused 

But his sound was muffled by the Devil of Lies!

Open your ears! Listen, Listen, Listen to the voice!

Hear it? Now think of your deeds. Seem vile, right?

Don't you blame the Devil, everything was your own choice

Beware! Many more voices are still yet to ignite. 

Now, now, there's no use of panicking

Death's just around the corner, you are too late

Soon you shall be left regretting

Start praying, after all,  it's all a matter of fate

If only you would have listened to your Angel...

Cheers
