It was the 23rd of May exactly twelve months from the day the angel kissed his lips for the last time. Her mind was clouded with visions only she could understand. Even though many months had passed the angel’s heart still hurt and her wings were soiled with disappointment.
Twelve months ago the angel met the mortal she fell in love with. From that moment on she would never be the same. Her heart would forever love a man who could not full-fill the broken promises or fill the empty spaces in her being. It was a love affair doomed from the start.
The angel was led by discreet from the moment her wings carried him. He would speak of all the things she ever dreamed of and she spoke of all her hopes she ever hoped for. It was a deadly combination and the angel trusted everything he told her.
Six months into the heavenly forbidden affair, the man told her he wanted her to be his bride. Without hesitation the angel accepted, smiled and kissed him passionately. Finally she was feeling secure and stable. The angel had been broken for many years and finally she thought she would live out everything she thought she would never have. All she ever wanted was to find true love and happiness. Sadly, her dreams would soon be shattered in a matter of days and soon after she picked out her white, beautiful wedding dress.
Not knowing the exact trigger that led her and her fiancée into a spiraled confrontation one evening, the angel found herself lost in all despair after the truth was revealed. It was the night her dreams were converted into nightmarish pictures.
The man she was going to marry still belonged to another woman in marriage. Beyond devastation the angel could feel her heart break and her spirit die. Now she was more broken than before and all because she trusted the man she loved. It was the saddest moment of her life.
Although the man explained his side of the lies the angel knew he never truly loved her. Even though he said it was because he didn’t want to lose her, she knew that all his promises never meant anything. The angel stayed with him despite the pain he put her through but eventually could see that he was not making any attempts to keep his contemplating promises.
Knowing it would hurt her more than him, she flew away from him one night and never returned. She returned to the heavens above along with her broken heart. Since that night she removed her wings and imprisoned herself in a cell of shame. There was nothing left for her to believe in.
It is now a routine on the anniversary of her broken heart, the 23rd of May and every May 23rd to come, that she will look down on to the earth below and blow an invisible kiss to the man she loved. Even though she will never experience a marriage anniversary with her lost love she will always be his alternate decision better known as his"" angel in a white dress."" As she twirls in the wedding gown she will never wear it will mark the anniversary of her fairytale that ended in total despair because of hidden secrets that should have never went beyond their very first kiss.
