Once Upon a Time in a Boredom

I wrote this when I was around 15 or 16. So please forgive me if you find anything silly! But I kind of like it...I'd like to develop it into a book someday but seeing the amount of angels and vampire stories around, it might not be wise..

Pearls of Punishment

Wearing those shining pink clothes; she seemed like an Angel,
the most angelic...
Pearl like drops glistened down her rosy cheeks.
She then appeared to be surprised.
Catching one drop of this pearl in her outstretched marble like hands,
she looked thoughtful...

She looked up when he approached. 
Her curiosity seemed to be greater than her sorrow.
She asked him what these liquid pearls were.

He looked at her, surprised by such a question.
He was now convinced that this was an Angel for sure...
A pure one!

Sitting in the shade of the tree on the grass of this gorgeous hill,
under the shining sun and cloudless sky;
she had indeed looked like an Angel.
When he had come up the hill,
it was like being in a fairy tale...

But alas! Those pearl tears...
She told him that she had been punished.
She was imprisoned on earth, her sweet memories wiped forever!
With the only cruel remembrance that she was sure she did not deserve the punishment.

She would have to live and die!
Yes! Die! Because...
She was no longer an immortal in this mortal world!

She would have to live in a world where good and bad co-existed.
She would have to feel emotions unknown to her like now!

Even Mother Earth refused to open up and accept her in her warm comforting lap!
She feared to be punished like the Angel...

That's what she had feared, the poor little Angel.
She feared this Selfish and Greedy world...

But she need not have feared!
Helping her up and standing by her side her whole life, he made her realize that
Heaven and Hell can be both found on Earth.
He protected her from Hell and introduced her to Heaven,,,

He was her Angel! Her own Guardian Angel!
In the Shining Armour of a Knight sent to protect her!
She decided she would love to stay on this planet with Him!

How mistaken she was! Too innocent!
How could she even think that this Cruel and Selfish world would let her be happy?

Separation Struck! She was snatched from her Guardian Knight Angel!
and brought back to her own world!
This, she realized, was her real punishment!

She had a glimpse of Hell in Paradise...
She would soon forget, thought everyone...And she did!
But her heart did not!

Her heart still wept at the remembrance of the glimpse of hell she had in Paradise;
which reminded her of her Guardian Knight Angel.
And pearls still ran down her cheeks,
Never again to be wiped away by her Angel...
