I Am

my wings burned from flights into
the fires of a hell of my own design
while the eye of truth watches
my doomed ascension

the gates of heaven forever chained
for i am nevermore nothing in this world
forevermore unforgiven in the next

i am the lonely child hidden in the closet
the dark shadow of failure
the cold morning after
the loneliness of rejection
the feeling of something left behind
the angel of regret
i am
