The Day He Left

There he lay silently sleeping while angels unseen kept vigil, waiting his transparent skin eyes closed to the world the only sound the gentle rhythm of machines Then silence all that he had been was no more all his hopes and dreams forgotten there he lay-empty for the angels had led him away.
