I was going home from school at around 7 or 8 at night. It had been a long day and I was exhausted. For some weird reason that I couldn't explain, I felt like someone I loved was close by or in danger. Suddenly, hear a scream from inside one of the tombs in the cemetary.
Instantly, I knew who it was: Angel!!
The one person in this entire world who actually gave a crap about me. The one person who I loved more than life itself. I han't seen him in a week and there had been a rumor that he had died and i'd been going through depression. (which was probably the reasons why I was walking through a cemetary instead of though the sidewalk like NORMAL people 😅)
I knew it was him, I just knew it.
I ran though all of th tombs until I thought I'd hear the thought directly under me.
It had his name on it but didn't have the year or the day or anything of when he had died. Apparently, I had just discovered that he wasn't even dead.
I had no tools so I had to use my hand to dig up as much dirt as I could. After I had gotten to his casket it was silent: NO screams from him or any signs of him even being alive.
I was terrified about what I might find inside of it.
I opened the casket and, laying there was Angel. he his eyes were closed and his nails full of blood.
In his hands, there was a note that said my name on it. I took it from his hands, letting my tears spill freely. It was a letter telling the reason why he was there, buried alive with not enough air.
My dearest love,
you might never find this note, and I pray that you do. I'm here in this grave and I died trying to protect you. I sacrificed my own life to save yours. Evil men were after you. They called me and told me if I wanted you to live, I had to sacrifice myself. I loved you so much that I accepted the deal. I hope you are alive and well and that you will not be horrified by what you are seeing. I hope you never forget the love that we had and I want you to know tha I will always remember you even if I'm not with you in my physical state. Just know that i will always be smiling down on you from heaven. Always know that I loved you deeply and as I told you so many times before: I would die for you than ever see you die in front of me. I guess now we know that I did love you more th life itself. I'll be waiting for you when you cross the most beautiful gate ever.
I LOVE YOU. Sincerely
Your Guardian ANGEL.
And with that, I took out my pocket knife and slit my wrist open until I saw him at the end of the tunnel, smiling at me and waiting for me like he said he would. I wrote a poetry upon them . A midnight walk through shadowed stones,
A sudden cry, a chill in bones.
She tore the earth with bleeding hands,
To break the grave's cruel, silent bands.
Inside the dark, his breath was gone,
But in his hands, a love shone on—
A final note of sacrifice,
To pay her safety’s heavy price.
She could not bear the world alone,
Beside his cold and quiet throne.
A blade, a breath, a faded light,
They met beyond the eternal night.
