Angel

By M.A. Blake

She fell down

Like a broken angel

Her wings torn from her sides

She fell in a haze of sorrow

Watching the only man she had ever loved

Throw his life away

Like it was nothing

Realizing what was going happen

She watched him as he ran to her side

Knowing that it was almost over

It's too late she wanted to say

Don't fight because of me

I'm not worth it

But her failing body refused her so many words

And instead she whispered the only thing that seemed real

Life is just a dream
