Avenging An Angel

Through teary eyes

She stuttered the verse

Of love lost

 

A tragic story

Of a young lady's curse

She was without a doubt

An Angel among men

 

Surrounded by demons

Lonely she wandered

Wielding no more than a pen

 

Her mind was lost

But a message it would send

Each verse a letter

Reporting her last breath

Before her life came to an end

 

For this young maiden

Had become a victim to pain

The demons inside mortals

 

As the horrifying memory

Tortured her innocent brain

She was in a dark place

But there was one last light

 

Her poems must be received

By her one true love

He who holds her in the night

 

She fell in the street

Her wounds still seeping

He knelt at her side

Pressing her cold corpse to his chest

Weeping

 

He swept her golden hair behind her ear once more

And caressed her pale cold skin

He discovered the letter, Her last words unspoken

He swore that night that he would avenge this sin

 

Until the last light

Until his final breath

He would hunt down the evil

And bring to them

A merciless death
