Premium Member Freedom is a bird with broken wings in the modern world, trapped in invisible cages of indifference
Freedom is a bird with broken wings in the modern world, trapped in invisible cages of indifference, Reflecting destiny as a silent shadow, the immutable aspects of existence embrace us with cold arms, Death, an artist of limits, carves the boundaries of our lives with the chisel of relentless time, Each human being becomes a prisoner in their...

Premium Member A flutter of wings rattles heart strings
A flutter stirs in my chest, Awaking it from its inattentive rest. As a tiny butterfly wing unfurled, To unleash a quake in nether world. Such chaos reeks as tremor grows, It billows and flaps as tempest bestows, An effect far beyond what reason deserves, From a flip of wing, hors d'oeuvres. A simple glance, a glint from eye, Triggers my heart to offbeat...

In playground of imagination
I'll climb the tallest mountains with no stress, I just need~ a helmet, rope, and other climbing gear, warm layers, good boots, maybe some fear, a bit of my heart in my mouth, to chase the butterflies from my belly— no need to fight against my shadow~ it'll be too tight upon the rock, wrapped ...

Premium Member In a library where time has paused to rest its heavy wings
In a library where time has paused to rest its heavy wings, two shadows float among the rows like phantoms lost in ink, where smoke rises like memories of a forgotten dream, two souls meet and burn like two stars in the endless night: Your coat carries the scent of absinthe and dreams that drift in melancholy, are you a...

Angels With No Wings
Her heart has been broken so many times, And her eyes have cried so many tears, That nothing bothers her anymore, You’ll never see her cry. She keeps to herself, She blends in with everyone else now, Because every time her heart broke, A feather fell from her angel wings. She may not act the same as before, But she’s still the same person, An...

As she drinks nectar from a flower, sweetness from heaven falls like dew anointed with a gentle rain amidst sun showers she appears as if on cue Lifting her wings she lands on a Zinnia beneath a tinted sky of April blue flight of fancy fanning fast, fabulous marvel, she is beauty true on...

Heart Flight
When a heart grows wings And we accept a ride The heavens open And we are pulled inside Every fiber of our being comes alive Our souls become vessels Where joy reside We welcome each moment As a long-for prize New songs are born And old ones die Life’s mountains flee Away our troubles fly The universe sparkles When a heart grows wings And we accept the ride ...

What My Mother Does After My Father's Death
She finds a bird fallen from its nest, crashed like an apple to the ground. Sliding her fingers through the rain soaked grass, she scoops the quivering ball of feathers into her palm. She takes it inside, to the same kitchen where she wept over her dead husband every night for nearly a decade. She feeds it baby formula from an eye-dropper, whispering I believe in...
