Abandoned

Abandoned by an angel,
guardian of my soul;
curbed in hell forever,
no option of parole.
Many times he rescued,
erased all misery,
showered down good fortune,
repelled grave injury.
Yet, I never thanked him,
acknowledged he was there;
yielding to ignorance,
he left me cold and bare.
Regret is all that’s left,
my days now filled with woe;
doomed to hardship’s bidding,
I reap that which I sow….
