The Lonely Angel

Inspired by Tay

He takes the step, the cord tightens.
As he hangs the copper sucking the life from him,
The Lonely Angel comes through the door and cuts the wire.
He gets up to look for her she is gone.
He takes the fall, the light disappears.
As he descends death ready to take him.
The Lonely Angel comes through the Air brings him to the top again.
He turns around to look for her she is gone.
He takes the gun, aimed at his head.
As he pulls the trigger the final attempt to leave.
The Lonely Angel doesn’t appear.
The trigger is pulled nothing is heard but a click.
He looks at the clip it is empty.
He looks up The Lonely Angel is standing there.
She has the bullet and a look of concern.
He takes her hand, She smiles at him.
As he stands there and looking her in the eyes.
Her dark wings melt away and she whispers in his ear.
“I care,” as she hands him the bullet, “but you can try again.”
