A/N: When I typed this up on my computer, it was in a much cooler format then this. Unfortunately, I do not know how to make that format work here, so my implied meaning is not entirely shown here. I apologize.

Silver bells ring in chilly air

He stops and looks around

Rustle of white feathers

Reach cold, numb ears

-----------------------

He looks around

Sees no source of sound

Still hears the heavenly sound

Chiming in winter air

------------------------

World melts in white light

Now he stands alone

Bells and wings within his mind

Awed

Not afraid

--------------------

He sees:

Eyes of earthly brown

Filled with twinkling, wet tears

White wings beating the sky

In melancholic waves of sorrow

-----------------------

She waits

He waits

Heart bleeding at her sorrow

Unable to say

Three

Simple

Words

-----------------------

Waited too long to speak

Too long to understand

----------------------

She is gone
