which is heavier
in the gravity of it all
a flight unheard or
a resounding fall

downed and plucked
a comfort's warm
once written-welled
tails of fancies
tickled
in a cloud of dust
or a grave remark
monumental
cryptic in undertaking
capturing histories
plumetting glass houses
calibur of ex's
in weight of
camelot

thoughts flutter
the easy way out
but pound for pound
equilibrium
the balance
between air and ground

both hold
same wait

Very beautiful, the first verse is my favorite. The entirety of the piece is stunning, =)

"cryptic in undertaking
capturing histories"
