369th Post

The angel cradles the dying one.
Mortally wounded.

The dying angel looks with glazed eyes.

I guess this is the price.
As renegade angels.
Must pay.

The other angel cries in silence.
And the dying angel asks.

Why do u cry for me?

And the other replies.
Because i love you.

With a nod of acknowledgment.
A smile.
And a final whisper of a farewell.

The body of the dying angel.
Crumbles into dust.
And gets scattered by the wind.

The living one screams into the wind.
Why her of all the people.
Why so?

Just when i have found the right companion.
And you have to take her away from me.
Returning me into despair and loneliness.

And with a sigh of frustration.
The angel lapses into anguish.
And silence.

Bound forever.
By the scars of pain.
