Default Grey angels

A darkness took the place of you and left me in this place
Where I turned cold in the absence of your heart
Footprints reside all over the grounds where my angel stood
Where his words turned my love to stone
*
He knew what to say to make me believe he came from heaven
As strong as I was, I was only a puppet in his hands
I was eager to believe in every promise
My faith in him was strong
Until I gave him my soul and he was gone
*
He painted a portrait of my pain
In shades of grey, a body lay bare and twisted in torment
Left to suffer in silence on a wall for everyone to see

Though I was empty, a heaviness pulled me to my knees
And the echo of a heartbeat filled the cavity in my chest
in the hole the angel left
I pray that this pain kills me
Turns me to fragments of grey
And with all the dust, the wind takes me away
So that I won't be deceived by angels again
