Invisible Wings

“Invisible Wings”






A light broke through a window



It touched my face tenderly



A sound echoed, so hollow



It never fades, so deadly






Time almost never stand still



So immobile, yet so quick



Life can be so cruel, ‘till



Fate may send someone, so sleek






She’s a woman of greatness



So bold, yet filled with beauty



No wings for flight, a goddess



Too Holy, grand, too pretty






We met by fate’s decision



Star-crossed on tonight’s dark sky



No doubt, no hesitation



We shan’t descend, we shall fly






But there are no wings for flight



No feather for wind to flay



The worthy learns that this sight



Ain’t easy for one to play






When times get hard, then hopeless



An angel comes for rescue



Quick, yet without wings, unless



There’s something else, right on cue






I hear no sound, no ringing



I have gone deaf, not able



My eyes were closed, quite fleeting



This ain’t something but fable






“Sorry” was never the word



Yet she said it like singing



A song of no joy, unheard



Of, yet hearts overflowing






A tear trickled down my cheek



When at last I saw the sight



View of Beauty's very peak



With it, gone shall be the plight






Sprouting from Eve’s back, it shines



Glistening white like snow



A pair of wings that is thine



Outstretching like some mad crow






I saw it, more than ever!



At last the sight was now mine



I held her strongly, never



Gonna let go, my grip’s thine






Your hand slipped off mine. Oh world!



Why the cruelty, oh why?



She flew with white wings unfurled



Gazing down toward my eyes






Light enveloped her tightly



Like a cocoon, she suspends



In the air, ready to flee



Her purity, with light, blends







Now it’s eating her slowly



Like a snake eating his prey



She knows she shall move freely



Never shall she be astray






I snapped back, when darkness fell



To life I so lovely tend



There’s the sound, such tale it tells



Such never fades, never ends
