I'm Castiel, but you know that

I am an angel of the lord

I've lived thousands of human lives

And might just live a thousand more

.

But these days my life's been threatened

By people who claim to love me

I find it hard to understand

After all, it's all new to me

.

I've died several times by their hands

And was hurt more than I can count

I've been tortured, I've fallen and

Even had my wings ripped out

.

Sam and Dean told me it's normal

That it's happened to them before

They said it means that I'm special

And I should brace myself for more

.

I'm not sure I understand that

Dean said to me : "Don't worry Cas

If they put you through stuff like that

It means they want us to react

.

"See, the point is that we all care

And that's why when something happens

We seek revenge on those who dared

To lay a finger on our friend"

.

Now to all the authors out there

There's something I want to ask you

Things I want you to remember

An advice I want to give you

.

I don't mean to sound ungrateful

Or to have you think I don't care

I'm glad you think that I'm special

But sometimes it's too much to bear

.

So please, before your new drabble

Before you start on a new abuse

Just remember I'm an angel

And I know where to find you.


This was inspired by mrspencil's Sherlock Holmes fanfic : It was worth many wounds? which I strongly recommend.
So, first attempt at poetry. Whaddya think?
