His broken halo
still gleamed dull gold
His haunted eyes
kaleidoscope of
all that he had seen
I could taste the loss
in his tears
the weariness written on his skin
like ancient runes
but there was hope in his kiss
that made me wonder
if I could be his salvation
at least for this one broken night

There’s a thin line between redemption and salvation. Similar in perspective but very different in nature. Crossing over to forgiveness, this is a haunting tale indeed.
