A BLUR of flowing silk and tresses of hair hurrying down the arenaceous path of the forest. These midnight rendezvous' barely brought to light, hidden in the shadows of the trees.
She comes to a halt, his face into view. Him with his disheveled clothes and carefree attitude. Him with his perfect smile.
The forbidden spark ignites once again when they touch and their eyes meet. Her each move being more graceful than the next. The intimacy of their gaze on each other only boldened by adoration. Dreaming of each other from dawn to dusk.
He thinks of her as an ethereal sight, in her silk white nightgown, with her perfect features. They cling onto this sensation, time hazing over.
Words were too ordinary to describe how they feel. A glass tear slips from his eye. The eyes that hold the very world when looked into.
For a prince and an angel, both bound by duty, were never destined to be. The prince who loves the angel too much to let her cut off her wings. The angel who loves the prince too much to lose him.
Was letting go expressing love in itself? Or was that a painful lie, spoken out of denial? Were their promises made to be broken? Their vow to never let go.
These are the inevitable thoughts that consume them. Her duty calls louder with every passing second. But time is simply a paradox when she's with him.
She isn't supposed to spend this much of that time on a single visit to Earth. It is unconventional to form such a bond with a human. After all, her place is in the heavenly abode.
The crestfallen prince can't bring himself to watch her leave. Even if she were to stay, their relationship would be disapproved of. Worthless in the eyes of the court. But he doesn't care what the people say.
He kisses her. It's the only thing he can do. When the universe truly condemns them, he kisses her.
So many unspoken emotions. Even if they don't express themselves quite clearly, there is too much to say, and too little.
"Say you're mine." The angel whispered. He would repeat those words again and again, if it meant anything at all. Nevertheless, he is too overwhelmed to.
Wiping of his tears, she smiles. A bittersweet smile. A tender smile.
She revisits all the memories. How he freed her. How she captivated him. She, who had spent her life living up to an 'angelic' version of herself, taught by another, who had to the same.
For what is an angel? A guardian, a guide, the one who comforts you. Now she has turned into something else. Something more human.
