He Called Her Angel

Flashback

Chapter 31

Flashback

Cassidy's POV (a flashback)

It was a day like any other. School had gone by achingly slow without the company of Wren by side. I did not know where he was, which had put me on the very edge of my seat, because it started to feel like every time he left me he would come back in more pain. That pain, oh God that pain, seeing a man cry, seeing someone who has been torn apart from the inside out, it killed me. Every time I put Band-Aids upon wounds that would never heal. Every time lies kissed my lips and laid blood on my hands. I couldn't do this anymore. I could not bear watching someone I was too afraid to say I loved destroy himself in my own arms. I could not do it.

Boy was he a fighter. When Wren first came to me he was almost like a fly on the ground. He let everyone walk all over him. Fear laced his every move and destruction clouded every nice thought. He was like an angel, but with broken wing. Therefore I lent him mine, but before I knew it the person I would take a bullet for, was pulling the trigger towards his own head.

So yes you can say I met an angel once,

Who showed me how to be loved,

And would give kisses

That would make your knees buckle.

I met an angel once,

Who got lost along the way.

Breaking things that was once pure

Because he didn't know

What he wanted or what was right.

I met an angel,

Who made empty promises

To show you 'heaven' again,

But only to break you down,

Because hell was easier to show.

I met an angel,

Who decided it was time to go back,

And leave you realizing

That heaven was never real.

Maybe it was just that beautiful things are so easily broken by the world. Over and over again I would say it was my fault, because just like that I had given up on him, but I still question if that constitutes him giving up on himself. In the end there was no closure and no way of knowing if my guilt was deserved, but it still tore me up piece by piece until I felt like there was nothing left. Even now I feel as if there is nothing left.

Authors Note

So I was trying to write this while my boyfriend was trying to distract me. He is crazy. Goddammit Eli stoooooop! Oh no guys he stopped. I didn't really want him to stop. Now he is just lying there all smug looking. Damn you Eli. So I have to go because I am pretty sure I am in love with him, and duty calls.

Ipromise the next chapter will be hella long.
