Weeping Angel

The wings drape down her back in sorrow
you can feel the pain and sadness
dripping off her while she is weeping
a darkening silence wafts around her
part of you questions why she is so sad
and the other wishes that you will never find out
you want to know if they are tears of joy
but you lean towards tears of sorrow
and hope you will never have to go through pain like her


The author's comments:
This piece was inspired by the Art Prize picture made by Rebecca Krug. The picture was of an angel weeping in black and white. I hope people can get from my writing an image of what the angel looked like, and how her emotion was shown through the image into my writing.
