A Guardian Angel
Disclaimer: I don't own Phantom
Author's Note: I pinky promise I don't usually write such sad things! But my muse just kind of started writing, and this is what happened. I love - more than you can possibly imagine - getting inside Erik's head, and this is what I imagine he would be feeling after he let Christine go. I just finished the book for the first time (SO SAD.) and that's kind of what inspired this. This is freeverse poetry, by the way, so it doesn't exactly rhyme :P But I hope you guys like this, and don't forget to review!
Death could come so easily.
At any moment, the world could become black and meaningless.
What is death?
Is it just a world that is black and meaningless?
If that is the case, then he has been dead for a very long time.
As his broken body begs him to sleep, he looks back on when he was alive.
In life, he had been so happy.
His heart had been full of amorous affections and extraordinary euphoria.
Strange dwellings for his wretched mind to ponder.
He wonders if he will ever be allowed to leave hell?
He feels every fiber of his being burning at every moment of every day.
The pain is worse than his physical ailments, which mean little to him.
Is he permitted a guardian angel in hell?
Surely not, but if he is, then he knows who he desires.
The only angel suitable for his genius is his muse, the Angel of Music.
Ironic, isn't it, that he was once her angel?
Will she come back to return the favor?
So many questions, none of which he holds the answer to.
He lifts a hand of lead to his chest, and wonders why he still feels a heart beat.
There should not be any heart left in him.
She took it with her on her flight back to heaven.
He does not eat.
He does not sleep.
He does not live.
Yes, he is dead.
And if he is not,
Then soon, he surely will be.
Yay for freeverse and lack of rhyming! I usually enjoy rhyming, but YOU try coming up with a rhyme scheme for this :P Lol, reviews are always appreciated, and thank you for clicking on! Sorry for being super depressing hee hee. You know, I just realized that this is kind of like a poetic form of my one-shot, Save Me. Maybe I write more sad things than I realize O.o I'm going to go upload something happy :) See ya!
