Fallen Angel

Fallen Angel

A Poem by Dream-Like State
"

This is something i put together over the last couple nights. It's a story of love and love lost. I hope you enjoy and comments, as well as feedback are greatly appreciated. Let me know what you guys think :]

"

These paper-thin walls peel, a resemblance of our quickly eroding bond, slipping through our fingers like grains of sand.

 

------

 

The twinkle in your eyes is now gone. However, unlike a star it didn’t explode and experience rebirth, becoming something even more beautiful and intoxicating. (Your twinkle merely burnt out, ceased to exist. It flat-lined like this mistake of a relationship)

 

------

 

Your smile still makes me feel uneasy, but now for a completely different reason. The butterflies anxiously awaiting their break into the daylight are now replaced with ash and dust, supplying me with a constant feeling of nausea. ( Anxiety becomes regret; shyness turns to distaste; a blinding love decays to a deafening hatred)

 

------

 

The man on the moon waved to me the other night. He whispered to me that I shouldn’t look to him for guidance anymore. I use to watch the moon rise to its highest point each night (when she was in my arms). Now I watch that same moon with emptiness in my grasp. Maybe the man on the moon is right. Maybe I do need to move on and quit being so pathetic.

 

------

 

I collect each tear I shed for you in a glass jar, so one day I can show you what you have done to me. You once taught me how to fly, only to strip me of my wings in the end. I now resort to walking the streets just like everyone else, in hopes that one day I will be able to fly off into the sky once again.
