Earth's Angel

I need never to hurt

But I feel pain just the same.

I need never cry

But my eyes still burn from

Unshed tears.

I need never yell

But my voice demands to be heard.

I need never be lost

Yet my heart at times lies broken.

Why must I torment my self?

Why can't I get along

With the one who is always with me

The one who lies inside me?

Why must I tease and tear down

To judge and criticize

The only one who stands beside me,

Who's inside and tries to guide me?

I desire peace from within

and peace from without.

I no longer wish to carry

this pain about.

I need to grow, to leave my self

To say a fond farewell.

I know what I must do now

I must send him back to hell.

For that is where the voice is from

The one who is never done

Saying all that I do wrong

who puts me down

who thinks he's strong

He's as weak as a kitten

without any claws

I know that now

My Master calls

Be gone with you, oh selfish one

Whom thinks of you and no other.

I'll be not by to talk with you,

Today or any other.

Slither back from whence you came

You know who you are for

I am one of God's Angels now

And require you no more.
