Angel Of Death

by SilentSuicide   Jul 26, 2008


She lives in the middle
Her destiny not heaven nor hell.
Sits on the ledge of the earth.
Waiting for which no one can tell.

Her wings black as night
Her eyes a deep sea blue
Skin soft as silk
A heart has never been so true.

He was only sixteen
He felt life was no big deal
So he pulled a razor down his skin
Just to see how it would feel.

Her eyes turned red
She sensed the presence of the reaper
They both knew this boys fate
As he dove the razor deeper

She tasted his blood in between her lips
Running like a river
She felt his heart failing.
As her body started to shiver.

She expanded her wings
Flew faster than light
Sped to the boy
Deep into the night

She came across him
His family screaming in remorse
They tried to save him
But death had taken its course.

She wrapped her wings around him
She is invisible to our eyes
Pulled his soul out
Listening to the family's cries

Dragging his soul away
She noticed his tears
Did he truly want this to end
Or was this another of his fears

Her blue eyes shifted gears
Her wings flew back
Suddenly she swung by the boys body
Where a soul was lacked

She flew over it
Starred at him with a smile
Layed his soul into his body
And let him stay a while

The boy opened his eyes
His family cried in awe
Even she had to cry
For what she had just saw

She flew back to her ledge
He was not ready to die
The reaper wont be pleased
But that boys life was no lie.
