Twilight breaks and the sun disappears
The faint whispers of stars look like fallen angels from the sky
As I sit here staring at the moon's reflecting glow, I can feel your presence in a distant world
Life was taken for granted and you didn't care about anything
You threw caution to the wind and I envied for it
But as I shut my eyes tightly to fight off the tears, your face invades my memory like sweet drops of rain
I shake my head regretfully trying to think different thoughts
But I see your teasing eyes, your lopsided smile that made me always laugh and I unconsciously reach out for you
As I open my eyes, I gasp
Your vivid face is in front of me, holding my trembling hand
I swallow, wondering if I'm still perceiving reality or in a surreal dream
I follow your stare up towards the heavens and look at you blankly
You show me your lopsided grin again and point at a cluster of stars
I look at them, but my vision blurs until I'm dizzy with fright
You let go of my hand and the world around me spins
I bite my lips to keep from screaming and squeeze my eyes shut tight
Now as I observe the brightening stars, I remember your eyes gazing at them
And I realize that I've just met a fallen angel
