You were a troubled soul whom I was to protect.
They told me watch you carefully, you were suicidal.
I was not to interfere with your decision on your life.
Only to make you see how much you are cared for and loved.
I was able to make you smile, you wanted to live.
I fell in love with you even though I wasn't allowed to.
Angels aren't suppose to get attached in mortals lives.
I asked if I could give up my wings and become mortal.
I wanted to share a live with you, grow old together.
I was told I could be granted that request with one exception.
If I became human I couldn't have you.
You took your life while I was away.
A note was found saying you were sorry, you loved me.
I went on bended knee and begged for my existance to no longer be.
I failed as your protector and human I no longer want to be.
You no longer exisit and either do I.

Awesome
Again you have shown that you have a magic touch with the words that pour forth from your mind. To know the kind of love that you describe is heavenly. Any person who loves the way that you do is trully a good and kind person who loves with thier whole being.

yes even angels can fall in love. and yes they can be hurt just as much as we can. heartache happens to everyone and everything. no one is immune. too love someone that much, to give up eternity to be with them is simply beautiful
such a sad ending.. life isn't always picture perfect, not always a happy ending.. life is often cruel and harsh.. but within that if one looks close enough they will find the silver lining within the clouds.
excellent take on the prompt.
good luck
