The Grace of Falling
“You’ve sent many sentiments to a stranger’s ears I’ve heard, my last friend.”
“And through which slit have you heard of such, surely not the lips of a fellow. For you should know me as I have you, my sentiments are poured to paper and in it lay a cursive unrelenting conscience.”
“Those hands may have only stained your perceived canvas, but your art though misunderstood has been through words. You’ve crafted many portraits with those.”
“My friend, you accuse me for the sins of the misfortunate. I’m no saint, never have been. They were young and beautiful as sins should be, committed through the youth of mind no less.”
“Your letters glisten like blades, as always. But you, you’ve fallen like that of an angel tearing the shackles of oppressed wings.”
“Wings that are good for everything but flight, it is enough. For it is the grace of falling, not the falling from grace that should be enamoured. These blades of mine, I have given many.”
“Neither of them wield it as they should.”
“None ever will. I’ve said my peace, now deliver it.”
“Farewell then, you shall have it and I shall have none.”
