Tubular Bells

Lying within his own pool of blood, his friend 
Gently holding his hand, saying, Are you sorry for your sins ?
Damien, squeezing lightly in reply and, Yes, I am.
A tear falling from his eyes; a whispered prayer; winds
Stirring leaves and Autumn's trees; children, gathering to see...
Flashing lights dangling her rosary she weeps; broken heart's as silver wings.

Sorry for many reasons I would suppose as I know I have been many times. Forgiveness comes because we are sorry. Wonderfully written and expressed my friend.
