I wish I could veiw you from the height of a bird in flight. To merely dream of running human fingers through your hair.. ..maybe then, I would know what desire could be. I close my eyes and fly away. I wish I could kiss you with lips only pure. To puncture your lips with my filth would be blasphemy.. If only I could achieve perfection for you.. My tears make your hand slip from mine.. ...and I have become void of anything divine. |

It was the song of finches that reminded me of how on rainy days we would chatter as in flit from thought to feel we spread our wings and learned to fly You told me then you were ugly inside from things you would not speak to I smiled knowing ugly all too well and tossed seeds to the wind hoping what was not eaten by passing finch or sparrow might grown into something we could share Now... It is the finches |
