this is supposed to be a caesura. I really need help getting the message into the poem





Haley Williams (Natashia Yauger wrote the first two lines to get me started.)

Martos                    Period 1          English                    Caesura : a pause in several lines of a poem. Often looks like this :  II

THE ANGEL

The eyes of a boy II slowly falling

Tears within his eyes II slowly losing hope

Life was not worth it II or so he says

All the pain that dwells within

For it is death that awaits him II "pop" goes the bottle of Aspirin

"Wait!" goes a voice II silently whispering in his mind

The voice sings a song of Love II of Hope

And all the things life brings.



The boy drops to his knees II silently sobbing

For it was the melodic voice II who saved his life.

The Angel II whom is long pass due

Has answered his prayers II the Angel of Hope















The Message: the poem is of a little boy, who always prayed by his bedside on bended knee. Every night he prayed for the bullies to leave him alone, his parents to stop fighting, his brother to stop picking on him, and for his dog to stop fiercely barking at him. But the Angel he prayed for did not appear. Two years later, the boy is 7 years old. The angel still has not appeared. He loses all belief in God and the powerful angels that God holds. Everything has gotten worse. His parents divorced, his brother separated and put into a different foster care home, he, himself was put in a foster care where everyone disliked him, and most of all, he begun looking to suicide. 1 year later, the boy is 8 years old. He is about to commit a full suicide attempt through overdosing Aspirin. And finally, his Angel of Hope has appeared to save him. This little boy, only 8 years old, has suffered through more than any 8 year old ever should.
