So Calm So Quiet So Dead

is this where the angels go
when they run away from home
do they crack the concrete with their teeth
is this where the angels go
when they need to be alone
so the tears slip quietly in their sleep
is this a question for a lover
id keep from any other
so you can but the bandage on my wrist
is this a question for the holy
to ask how one can be so lonely
so i could strike another off the list
