Falling out of the Sky

 
I gazed above me
And saw a flashing light
The colour of gold
An eternal flame
I widened my eyes
A body came floating
And something protected it
She was falling out of the sky
I held my arms out for her
She was coming closer to me
My arms were out stretched for her
She fell into my embrace, her arms wrapped my neck
She had a a grazed mark on her face
And she was bare, and dirty
Her eyes were shut and she cradled up to me
I put her on a rock
She opened her eyes delicately
Looking into mine
She hugged herself securely and blushed
"Are you alright?" I asked her,
Putting my hand on her knee
She nodded and unfurled her wings
They were a golden brown
And they were almost bigger than her
"Thank you for saving me," she whispered
She gently brushed her lips upon mine
She flew back up to the sky
Without any hesitation
Was I just with a fallen angel?
