From heaven to hell I fell
From heaven, hell my country became
Fire over the land
Darkness over the sky
Mother land… I can hear you cry…

From heaven to hell I fell
From heaven, hell my land became
The sea turned red
The angels fell dead
Mother land… I can feel you calling me…

From heaven to hell we fell
From heaven, hell our hearts became…
Even in the fire…
There’s no place I’d rather be
Because even when you’re burning
Mother land… you are still my heaven!

This poem is very good. It could be a song if you added more with the heaven to hell part as the chorus. I like the description with the angels falling.
