ELEGY FOR DEATH'S ANGEL
See him standing there
The sun to his back, with a gentle wind
Not a cloud in the sky, for it never rained for their death
For his angel
He looks so strong
But look closer
Look at the stains of his tears?
His eyes, even though they are as blue as the deepest ocean
Still have never held as much water as one
He is supposed to be perfect, isn't he?
So why, why did his feelings all of a sudden
Over take him like this?
Why, why did he feel for this person so much?
Why did he fall for this beautiful angel of death?
Was it because he truly loved them?
Was it because they never lied, because they always kept their promises?
Well this time they didn't
They lied; they broke their promise to him
They promised that they would come back
That they would live with each other forever
In a way he knew that it wouldn't last
He was ready for anything, or at least he thought he was
His angel, the one he loved so much was death after all
Or at least that's what everyone else said
But he knew that he would join the angel soon,
But till then he just stood there
Looking out at the small grave yard he could see it,
The grave of the broken angel of death
