Heaven on Earth









Angels have fallen,
emptied the skies.
beneath the clouds,
lay now the heavens.
Thousand tears shed
drenched us, the rain,
washing away our miseries,
ours, mere mortal's.

what remains now is
a fallen heaven,
in the hands of mere men,
who do not have an eternity
to hate, or to make things right,
not even fully to live or to love.
what they have is- now.
Now there is
a heaven in their hold,
and a hell to make.
And so they try
the mortals!
