A final, reddened tear drips into a pool of forgotten friends
One unkissed heart no longer struggles beneath an ocean of pain
Chewed up and spit out into a world of unquenched thirsts
Once smiling wings fall limp with rejection
Jealousy attacks the remaining portions of unanswered prayers
Within a beloved, thought-to-be undestructible fantasy
Lies a silenced angel, fallen
from her cloud of broken dreams
