Wing to Darkness

You are my
Ideal
Love
God.

You hold my
Heart
Soul
Sanity.

and

Now,
You are-

I promised you that I would
Never let you go.

You are
Mine.
Only,
Forever
Mine.

Obsession
Compulsion.
Chains
Bonds of
My heart to your soul.

I promised you

Except you leave.

Barely an
Image
Shadow
Memory
Of all you were.

Leaving with your now-lover,
I cannot touch.
So I follow
In the cold.

I
Want
Your arms
Around my soul.

In the dark
I
Watch you
Slip away.

I know.

On wings,
Angels fly
Into the night.
You go,
Follow
Alongside them.
Leaving me.

Eyes open,
You try to smile
But you cannot move.

You try to say
‘I love you’
As you die.
But your mouth
Cannot speak.

You escape the
Cage your body has become,
Follow the Angels.

And
I follow you
Into the
Dark
Velvet
Night.
