The Bounds of Earth

“I didn’t know what to make of them at the start, finding myself enmeshed in their curious lives. Beautiful young men risking death for us all. Because I loved them, I kept my promise never to reveal their special gift, never to speak of the women who also shared that unusual consciousness. Knowing their secret was a burden I had to bear. And as a witness to their different way of being, I learned to smile whilst my heart was breaking.”- Angel
