Death of an Angel

Featherless falling,
Catching the light, mourning
Silent sighs escapes
From half-formed words.
The serene sound of an angel falling.
Wings shatter like shards of glass
Cutting what souls remain.
Touched by grief and pain
Compassionate heat of the summer day
Escapes on the breath
Of an Angel, wingless.
Landing on air, no sound is heard
Of the Angel dying near me.
Can you feel the cool breath, the wings
Flutter and brush my cheek.
Eyes ever looking forward, ever forward
Life full of hope,
Now turn backwards and embrace the pain
No longer the eternal hope
Fills our lives as an angel dying
Turns away and sighs.
No longer shining the heart begins to cloud
As the realities of the world begins to rise
Dying a painful death
Racked by human woes
The angel dies, no longer glows.
And we are left alone
To feel the woe
Of an angel falling into understanding
That innocence is not lost but taken
Feathers fall
And cover the floor
Where an angel died
Not long before
