Angel of Death by ~mirrored-disgrace:iconmirrored-disgrace:

Categories Literature > Poetry > Narrative > Song


I saw her then, laying blissful
She loved me then, sleeping peaceful
Then I knew she was truly doomed
And I would be her demise

[Chorus]
Oh Angel of Death, guardian dear
Through whom god’s love commits me here
Use me, I beg, leave her be
Angel of Death, stay over me
[Chorus]

I’ll spread your message, ‘til I die
Try to calm them, where I lie
Into paradise angels lead
They grow smaller, as I grow blind

[Repeat Chorus]

Don’t forsake my memory now
Where I died, the why or how
God has taken my hands evermore
I loved him true, now it’s your turn

Author's Comments

I put this under narrative because it's a song I wrote for school, BASED on the plot/story of "A Prayer For Owen Meany".
If you know the story, awesome. If not, it's no big deal.

Wrote this... in second semester of grade twelve... so... about 8 months ago? Hmm, something like that.

The tune is to a song by Evanescence called Eternal. From about 3:30 in, to the ending thunder :P It's almost a lullaby :)

Beautiful lyrics.

Would also sound great in the Symphonic Metal (Within Temptation [link] • Epica [link] • Amberian Dawn [link] • Nightwish [link]) or even Symphonic Power Metal (Kamelot [link] [link]) genres.

I can give you more bands if you want. :D

I have totally been saving this comment for when I had time to go listen to those songs. But it's been way too damn long and I've just been dead or sick or ADHD'd enough that I couldn't manage.

So woo for failure.

And to add insult to injury: you just lost the game.

SOWWEE :heart: :XD:
