Angel's Free
I didn't want to go
But my home is not a home
I snuck out at night
I'm tired of the fight
I was supposed to be the Princess
The twinkle in his eye
The sacred jewel he always wanted
Now I have to run or I'll die
She couldn't help me
She tried once before
The same eyes we shared
Was darkened once more
It was time for me to leave
I can make my own way
It was time for me to be
Anywhere would be better than to stay
I should be scared
Going into the unknown
I was trained in battle
Inside my own home
It's hard for me to cry
My tears are dried in it's ducts
I wanted to say goodbye
I could not press my luck
I found a feather
As white as can be
My mother believed in angels
Her little Angel is finally free
But my home is not a home
I snuck out at night
I'm tired of the fight
I was supposed to be the Princess
The twinkle in his eye
The sacred jewel he always wanted
Now I have to run or I'll die
She couldn't help me
She tried once before
The same eyes we shared
Was darkened once more
It was time for me to leave
I can make my own way
It was time for me to be
Anywhere would be better than to stay
I should be scared
Going into the unknown
I was trained in battle
Inside my own home
It's hard for me to cry
My tears are dried in it's ducts
I wanted to say goodbye
I could not press my luck
I found a feather
As white as can be
My mother believed in angels
Her little Angel is finally free

What movie was it? I’d like to see you tell the same story without the ABAB rhyme scheme, but I like how the characters in the poem are evoked.

"Bastard out of Carolina" is the name of the movie. I will see what I can jot down with out the ABAB flow

Just watched Bastard Out of Carolina about a month ago. That was with Jennifer Jason Leigh. Great film! Great poem and with the movies connection, i can fully relate to what you have written. Nice work!
