Where Angels Fear to Tread

Out beyond your window, lies a place where angels fear to tread.
Cast in shadow, is this place, and surrounded by despair.
No-one dares to venture forth, for the elders tell of a banished fiend, who dwells amongst the wreckage.
Chaos. Anarchy. Death. They say he brought these things, upon this quiet, sheltered town.
But is this really the place, where angels fear to tread?
Law and order faltered, but free-will, and ambition appeared from many closets.
This man spoke out, and encouraged a rebellion, but banished he became.
That is why he is to be found lurking, where angels fear to tread.
Cast out of society, and rejected by his family, this man had nowhere to go.
Into the depths of Hell, his thoughts began too lead.
Struggle, would his heart, to break this downward spiral.
But all this fight, and all this love, would be in vain.
Who would ever believe, that such a man could falter?
His thoughts became more depressing, as every minute swept by him.
His appearance soon became distorted, resembling his surrounds.
For we all know, that darkness is all-consuming.
Lost for hope, and abandoned by all, it was only a matter of time, before his Spirit fell.
For he was stuck in a darkness, where angels fear to tread.
It reached a time, when he had had enough.
He reached for the blade, and held it tight, in amongst his fingers.
He thought of his family, and a tear streaked down his face.
What he would give, just for one last look.
He saw their faces, cried out, and dropped the blade.
It was for them, that he had rebelled, and cried out to the World, sacrificing himself.
The pain was so raw, and intense, and completely broke him down.
He snatched up the blade, and slashed at his wrists.
As his life slowly ebbed away, he knew that he had lost.
For his strength, and his will, had fled, when he had been cast out.
But his last comforting thought, stayed with him well past his dying day.
For he was not the bad person, that was left to society.
They couldn't handle change, for extreme it was considered.
Herein lies the place, where angels fear to tread.
