My Dark Star Angel

-My Dark Star Angel-
by Keaton Foster


Upon wind
Every sin
In the sky
Forever wide
I can see
Day
Night
Matters none
There
Like a hole
Torn into the blue
Ripped into my soul
She
My dark star angel
Her skin
Frigid and thin
Her mind
Callous and numb
Her modus operandi
Vacant of further ideas
Her one goal is “I”
Those eyes
The only thing
So very alive
Back at me
Do they reflect
All that I
Could ever wish
To hide
What I’ve done
What I’ve become
A child
Turned monster
She
A girl
Made victim
She deserved more
Then the nothing
I have forever placed
Inside her heart
No one knows
That it was me
She was never found
She disappeared
From the world of the living
Becoming
An immortal aberration
A pin prick
In a sea of otherwise
Unrequited blackness
I was questioned
Not as a suspect
But rather
A concerned friend
I spoke nothing but lies
Now
There she is
Starring down at me
From so far above
She says nothing
As she speaks of everything
So desperately
I wish
That I could not hear
That I was blind
It may have been
A lifetime ago
But time cannot change
What her and I have
My dark star angel
Is what she has become
A circular abyss
In what would otherwise
Be a life of second chances
So much has changed
For me
But I fear
It will never be enough
I’ll be judged
The hole in my sky
The crater in my heart
Will ultimately consume
All that could be defined
As kind
Upon wind
Every sin
In the sky
Forever wide
I can see
Day
Night
Matters none
There
Like a hole
Torn into the blue
Ripped into my soul
She
My dark star angel
I am doomed
By what I’ve done
And by what she
Has become…
