Undefined then Known
She was alone
Half angel, half demon
Cast out from both Heaven and Hell
For being... different
A lonely girl
With wings and claws
And a face full of sorrow
With tears in her eyes
She was banished to Earth
With no where else to dwell
Destined to roam the Earth
For all eternity
A vampire sought her
For her overwhelming beauty
And bit her, not finishing
And him dying soon after
Now, being a disgraceful creature
Half vampire with bloodlust in her veins
She knew she had nowhere to turn
Because of what she had now become, worse
Being immortal, she couldn't turn to the method of suicide
She was tormented with the knowledge that
She would rise everyday, knowing her fate
Not having the ability to die and escape the pain
She didn't know physical pain
And she had never known pleasure
She'd been alone for so long
She had lost hope of finding love
But one day, a stranger appeared
He was dressed all in black and carried a scythe
But had the sweetest look in his eyes
Which told her everything
His name was Shinigami
the God of Death
He asked for her name
But she didn't know how to answer back
"I am without a name
For I am unimportant
I was abandoned by my parents
And shunned by both my kinds."
He looked at her with sympathy
And took pity in her
He took her in, in spite of what she was
And made her his apprentice
Thus, the girl undefined was now well known
As Tenshi no Shiine, the Angel of Death
But she was still empty inside
Still longing for a certain something
Shinigami saw everything
The sadness in her eyes
And the loneliness in her heart
He knew exactly how she felt
He told her
"You need to go back to Earth
You'll still be my partner
But you need to find your true purpose"
She was confused
But she didn't say anything in response
He left her back on Earth
And gave her a message
"You are like a sister to me
And I would never abandon you
You just have to trust me
It will all work out"
And she believed his every word
And with one first kiss to her forehead
He disappeared
And she was alone again
So she now walks the Earth again
She wonders if Shinigami had spoke the truth
What did he mean by it will all work out?
It never had before, so what makes now different?
But being with Shinigami
Had taught her something
I am immortal for this reason, I have a purpose
She longed to find it
She wandered for years
Again with no one beside her
And she was beginning to feel weak
She knew it was time
She sat back against a cherry tree
Near a still pond
And began to say to herself
"Shinigami, I know you're with me"
And with one last breath
She was gone, but not really
She was immortal, unable to pass away
She was being "reborn"
In a human mother
From a human father
Now to converse with mortals
To live with them in their world
She was still herself
She still had everything she had before
But she began to forget her past
What she truly was
She had stored a little part of her memory
Inside her before the reincarnation
So she wouldn't completely forget
And as she got older, she remembered more
But now she had a name
And she had a loving family
She had friends that ment the world to her
But still she didn't know her purpose
At times she still felt alone
She also now felt pain
Tears were a constant impurity on her eyes
Which fell down like rain
The old part of her cried out
And told her not to worry
Shinigami told her it would be all right
She just had to believe
It was like being reborn
She spread her wings out wide
And remembered who she really was
And she stated everything
"I am the balance between life and death
I am the one who decides a soul's rightful place
Whether it be Heaven or Hell
I am Tenshi no Shiine, and I know my purpose
Now that she knows
She will tell her story
But it has already been told
Because she is me
