Homesick Angels-LW Poem

[Piper Wren]

I wrote this a while back and came across it just now while deleting some old files, it kind of reminds me of LW.


He takes drink of the first thing he can lay his hands on,
Just to take away the pain,
He’s thinking of words to put into his latest letter,
He writes and he writes,
He drinks and he drinks,
What the hell would his parents think?
Now I know you need me,
God knows I need you,
So I leave this message for you,
That this who we are,
Just like homesick angels we’re climbing towards the sky,
Just like homesick angels we sit and wonder why,

She takes a drink of wine by her beside,
Just take away the pain,
She writing down words to make him see,
To her he still means everything,
She writes and she writes,
She drinks and she drinks,
She doesn’t care what her parents think,
This is who we are,
Just like homesick angels we’re climbing towards the sky,
Just like homesick angels we sit and wonder why,

Colours aren’t just black and white,
All I’m seeing is grey,
Will you hold me in your arms?
Say it will be alright?
This reflection distorted,
My heart is gone,
This is where it’s over,

Now I know you need me,
God knows I need you,
So I leave this message for you,
This is who we are,
This is who we are,
Just like homesick angels we are climbing towards the sky,
Just like homesick angels,
We don’t need to ask why,
