The Pit

The pit

Hello she said 
The pit of my stomach dropped 
An angel spoke 
The butterflies woke 
My mind is blank, thinking of something slick, but mute I become.
Bye she says and walks away 
She leaves a beautiful scent, and leaves a  trail of feathers 
she flies off

Time came and went 
Don't know how I managed to gain someone like you, kind, gentle, and caring. Every word you have said had meaning to them.

Over time my eyes realized your true lies 
All I gain was pain yet 
All that joy that I gained, while you stayed 
Made me realize the mistake I made
Knowing you were fake ...Your words  no longer left meaning , leading me to lean on hopes and dreams that will never be. 

Hello she no longer spoke.
An silence succubus
The pit of my stomach turned sour
The moth awoke.
Countless  things I want to tell you
But I bite my tongue 
She walks pass with a limp, she no longer has wings covered in feathers they are replaced with a thin layer of skin
an unimaginable foul smell fellows 
she stumbles away.
