Heart Rebounds
Angels still have a heart
and a faith that may depart
if the world damns this soul
beyond the limits of their will
the vaulted heavens aren’t enough
to sway the spirit from despair
when mere mortals are much worse
than imps from realms far below
eternity is the sentence’s span
for the ones self-condemned
found divorced from the grace
of salvation the high embrace
still some hope must persist
to save the lowest from their ilk
in this place the lost are found
and once again the heart rebounds.
