He was beautiful

and he was broken

and he was twisted

and he belonged to no one

he never could

he was unfinished

but perfect

A half done painting

all lovely curved pencil lines

but only half a face

half a pure soul

And I hoped to God he could be finished one day

because he was half an angel

but could never be mine

For the other half wasn't there

leaving him empty

and bleeding

And remorseless

and incomplete

he couldn't be touched

God had left him half done

and I cry for him
