Vergil
Agony filled my fragmented heart as I saw him lying there
Blood had streaked the delicate lines of his silver shining hair
His piercing eyes stared broken at me, the Fire slowly dying
The Breath of Death rattling down his neck
as he looked up at me smiling
The Demons of this world and Hell had
broken his body and torn his soul
The steel he used to fight them had fallen still and cold
"Vergil..." I wept as I lifted his bleeding chest up close to mine
And felt the beat of his passing heart struggle against
his wound of Fate and Time
His smile was filled with sadness, love
but tainted with his mortal pain
My mourning cries of misery were drowned by heartless, pouring rain
Then he said to behind blue eyes,
"Don't cry for me, I don't want to see your tears."
And he lifted his hand to stroke my tearstained face;
his touch was so sincere
A smile of happiness graced his mouth as he murmered to me softly,
"You know that Devils never cry..."
And before his brilliant eyes had closed to end the anguish of his life,
I whispered to him with downcast eyes,
"But Angels Never Die..."
