KISSED BY AN ANGEL
My heart beat, slower and slower
As my blood thickened
My body grew limp
As though shot with a tranquiliser
My eyes drew heavy
As though laden with weights
Clouds closed in
So to swallow the light
My end was close
Drawing nearer and nearer
Just as my book was set to shut
I was inhaling my final breathe
Then breaking through the darkness
A beam of light shone through
A glimmering star fell down
Landing by my side
I gazed over to see
A wondrous sight before me
An Angelic figurine
She took hold of my hand
Her voice harmonic
She spoke to me of family
Of my true friends
Uttered words of wisdom
My work had just begun
Leaning over me she whispered
‘It is not your time’
With these words she kissed me
With the kiss came an eternity
A blink of my eyes
A thump of my heart
I awoke
Paramedics beside me
My new life had begun
I shall never forget that moment
That dream
That Angelic kiss
