You were an angel, my little angel.

A terrible fate awaits foolish haste.

Creak and crack sing the floorboards.

Not What We Knew

Topic: Grief

A story written with blood;
Blood fresh from your veins,
Drawn willingly by your hand;
Scrawled in history with a knife.

Young men stand upon the stars,
Preparing to jump and fly away.
The ground beckons their willing souls
To an untimely yet familiar demise.

Once upon a time, not too long past,
You were an angel, my little angel.
Now you have fallen from grace;
A terrible fate awaits foolish haste.

Tick, tick, tock drones the ailing clock;
Creak and crack sing the floorboards.
Lying out in the rain so tears wash away,
Different people step back from the grave.
