Trade Their Wings

Angels cry and cannot fly when thoughts of love stir above. And though desire burns like fire: its flame is subdued by shame. Veiled in fear, love draws a tear: till crying eyes, wet the skies. So when Angels cry, tears flow; and their pain morphs into rain. Love dreams, evoking extremes: levies a toll on their soul. And Angels cope without hope: seeking ways to skip such days. Angels desire touch so much: dreams garner bliss from a kiss. And as love starts to haunt hearts: they'd trade their wings for such things.
