It Was a Lonely Night in Boston

It was a lonely night in Boston
When the city went to sleep
Stood a single, vacant doorway
Supporting a solitary man

It was a lonely night in Boston
When the snow began to fall
Leaving screaming snowflakes
As they died upon his flesh

It was a lonely night in Boston
When the cruelty arose
The sobs that wracked his body
And paralyzed his soul

It was a lonely night in Boston
When came a muted sigh
Softened by the soothing powder
That made the city die

It was a lonely night in Boston
When I herd the woman scream
While white twisted to red
And the angel got his wings

I know it needs some tweaking.. PLEASE tell me what you think! Thanks so much

I liked that part the most ^. "and the angel got it's wings" very nice ending i must say :) you might want to give this poem a little more backbone and a clear cut picture, but u have several great points and ideas in this poem :)

Really nicely written. I liked how you did something out of the ordinary.

I'm guessing most of the lines were a metaphor =P.

I loved the repetition, and the vagueness of it all really drags you in.

Well written!
