the angel throws away his cigarette - Allah won't catch him.
Dear Gabriel,
Benson across your lips,
Light it,
Inhale.
Celestial Cancerette.
Eyes shut,
Reignite,
Exhale.
Cloud Nine.
Allah’s coming,
Feel Him,
Run.
Sinister Epinephrin.
Banish the cigarette,
Dissimulate
So that we may see shooting stars.
Yours Affectionately.

Maya Sultan is a 17-year-old senior in high school in Islamabad, Pakistan.
Writing is a passion that runs deep in her veins. Her creations although raw and undefiled reek of melancholy at their intense epitome, hoping that her words seep into the reader's bones.
Her publications include The Paper Crane Journal, The Hearth Magazine, Cathartic Youth Literary Magzine, Teen Ink, and Juniper Literary Magazine.
Every piece Maya writes is a fragment of her heart that she exposes to the real world. This fragment was inspired by a dialogue from the movie, "The Swimmers"
