Halo Effect

Come down divine
Beauty
And scatter around me
Render me worthy
Of this agony and
Dig into me slowly
Time and time around
I see...
And I feel
So ugly around you

Come down divine
Beauty
Make your flawless image
Rain down before me
To baptize this sinful eye of mine

Time and time around

I see
All the things that make you perfect
The surface broken rotten
Shattering this mirror
And cutting through my unclean skin
Leaving bloody trails behind
And the image you reflect
Turns out to be a halo effect

Come down divine
No strings to make you fly this time
What does it feel like when there's
Nothing left to hide behind

Come down divine
Beauty
And scatter around me
Render me worthy
Of this agony

...I've rather submitted this into the 'human nature' category than into 'spiritual' poetry because this poem isn't directly religiously flanked although it has a bit of religious scenery...

definitely gorgeous - it has almost a lilting stacatto effect to it (yes, I realize that is almost entirely oxymoronic), but it really does:
'come down divine' - it hops and skips at the same time as it flows
lovely use of repetition - makes my eye skim up and down the poem (in a good way)
love it - +fav without a doubt

I've noticed other people have said this, but they really do sound like lyrics of a song. I only wish I were more musically inclined, I can -almost- hear the music behind it. ^^;;

Something about the phrase "render me worthy" is very appealing. I like that.
