Lost Angel by Lili Johnston-Okuyama

Illustration by Sarah Mulder

I like seeing you under the light of stars.
Of streetlamps and old Christmas lights.
Of flickering candles.

They hide your afflictions,
And your addictions,
Your fatal image
And lucid eyes.

They hide the glow of your lost halo
And forgotten wings.
