Panes


break away stubborn bird
i hope your southern flight is rewarding
comforting, bordering heaven
arena of plumes, pink fire
graceful in the very depths of simplicity
sigh of my sigh, vapors on the glass
(tear-stained-glass)
sayonara today-forever
just as the flamingo dazzles and displays
my every weakness
blinding with beauty
you do as well
glamorous
even more in your own eyes
i stare out through the years
the windows ofthis soul now cracked
the rain seeps in
feathers on the sill
scattered and tossed by restless wind
your wings/my prayers:
separate through your escape
go join your V formation
I know where you are going
off to a new-found love
sayonara today-forever

SAD BUT TRUE WORDS...
well expressed

If all was light...then I would have never learnt the dark...from which such truth evolves
from which evolves the light...
