Beauty,

the night was as silent as death,
and even the wind held its breath
even now I'm not really sure whether or not
I saw angel, for her beauty was unearthly
and even the moon hid her face.

I saw her walking by with long strides, and as she passed time slowed to that one moment of complete concentration. There I was struck by a sight that would never again leave my mind. A sight so breathtaking that the memory itself burns in my mind.

Within seconds she was gone, and I stood still frozen in wonder. Her face, so delicate, was torn with pain and sorrow. And the stars bowed their shining heads in honor for their superior, for beauty so pure is only found amongst the children of God
