"The Angel"
She looks down
at her fallen beloved
as he struggles to breathe
"I can save you still," the angel
whispered softly as she knelt down
her shimmery wings barely touching the ground
And her lover smiled, without a word
and he caressed her cheek
wiping the tear that fell upon
her beautiful face
As they kissed
for the last time
warmth filled her
once more
as he held her close
slowly dying
In the final moments
of their beautiful parting
she stood over him
and loving plucked a feather
placing it over his heart
As she leaned in
and whispered in
his ear:
"You may be gone
but never forgotten
and forever remembered
in the chambers of my heart
and soul"
As she took to the sky
and flew away
across the face of perfect
weeping Heaven.
