I flew for you.
I rose through the suffocating coldness of space.
I ascended to the clouds that stole my breath.
I was not meant for the scorching light of heaven's gate.
I eradicated my darkness and let my new halo brand my soul.
I sprouted these heavy wings.
This was all for you.
I flew for you.
•
I fell for you.
I plummeted to the treacherous ground.
I descended to the dust.
I was not meant for the rust that would envelope and break my wings.
I corrupted my halo and watched as it shattered.
I burned my precious wings.
This was all for you.
I fell for you.
