Murder He Wrote

Dear Angel,

I've never done something like this before, but I hope you'll forgive me for my shaky hands and lackluster prose.

You are truly an angel - that is the only word I can think of when it comes to describing you - uncorrupted by the world. I wish I could just lock you up, my sweet little song bird, so you would sing gentle things only to me.

But I do not deserve such beauty in my presence, for I am a demon in man's skin.

I hope you enjoyed the roses. I know they are your favorite.

Yours Truly, A Ghost.
