Fallen Grace

FALLEN GRACE

I have loved you more than you could possibly know. I have known you since the beginning of time. I sat, quietly, waiting for your arrival. I disobeyed, I fell, and I was flung to the ground by the very power which has held me in its Grace. All because I have fallen in love with the one thing that we are not supposed to get tangled with…your heart. I have heard its heartbeat all of my life, yet, I never knew what it actually was. It was always a strange metronome in my head that I could never place the origin to…and I know why now. You had not been created. I have known you all of this time, and I would give up my Grace a thousand times over, my immortal life to live with you in this mortal turmoil that we call humanity. If it meant that I got to be with you, then that would be worth a thousand purgatories over again and again. It would make up for the disappointment that my Father feels in me right now. It would make up for the loneliness that I have been feeling for my entire life. I have prayed, selfishly, for this to become a reality, and for once, I do not feel ashamed for being selfish. I feel alive, for the first time in a long time, and I do not want this to fade away. Alas, I am too late to save you from the fate that you have chosen for yourself, but I do know that even if I have to crawl this world a thousand times over, I will find the body that your soul has been reborn and renewed into this time. I will find you. I love you.
