A Sin Punishable by Death
How cruel it is for us to be this way
our very desires, damn our race.
Eden will fall, like time before
and we will be to blame.
Knowing this as I do—I should
be able to walk away and
leave sin for the others who'll fall.
But my will is weak and my passion strong
So I fall like those before me,
Into endless sin, endless pleasure—
Into your arms, into your body
A sin punishable by death,
and I die again and again
lost in the embrace of he who damned me,
He who spilt into me life like none
I've tasted before; so with happiness and joy
I flock to death's side.
A/N: In Earthian the angels have all but lost their attraction to members of the opposite sex. (There are exceptions however.) In response to this homosexual relationships are punishable by death. My inspiration for this poem came mostly from Michael and Ralphiel's relationship though Chihaya and Kagetsuya helped my inspiration a bit as well. Overall it is kind of abstract but I think it fits well with the general attitude of the manga towards this sort of relationship between its characters.
