the curse

An evil witch casted a spell on an angel
that spell perished her from heaven
cursed her to wander in loveless lands
her body became so deformed that
whenever she reached out her hand
for love, every one shrank back with fear.

Her eyes forever brimmed with tear
for she ached so much for the love
which she used to share with her sisters
back in the glory days in heaven.
Though she yearned for them to be back
a part of her heart was slowly giving away.

One dark night she saved a man from
the clutches of sure death, he clung
to her like a small child she guided him
to morning, knowing he will throw away
the hand when he sees her in the day
the day came and the day went to her wonder.

When nothing changed she asked her friend
why is he not going away after seeing how
deformed she is, the man laughed out loud
and said, my angel your love brims in your
eyes, have seen so many women never
seen such divine eyes, I will stay forever.
