Two beings fell in love...
One a dark angel
The other a human.
She wore a short red dress,
And he only had wings.
Her black hair billowed around her face,
While his arms held her close to him.
One day she almost died.
He couldn't do anything,
But he picked her up
And folded his wings around her.
"I couldn't live without you,"
Was what he said to her.
"So please keep breathing."
He pleaded for hours.
He decided she was gone,
So he gave her one last kiss.
As he was walking away,
He heard his name.
It was spoken by an angel's voice,
But came only from his lover's tongue.

I hope it's what you needed, but if there are any suggestions, please let me know!
