"Wings of an angel"

Tuesday, May 17, 2011

She's like a candle in the wind,
flickering in and out,
but nearly burn out,
the hollowness of death has crept upon her body,
leaving her to be a mostly empty shell.
The smile has gone from her face,
it's nearly time for her to go to another place.
Her voice is gone and left her mute,
simple nods and hand gestures is all that remains.
Wings will be placed.
