You cried out in your sleep For something the world could not give you You sought a purity beyond What the world can be distilled to In the gloaming you went Your broken wings having healed you are Confined no longer to places Faces Or even words In that last fleeting look I saw your days to come I saw a fruit tree on a hill |

I was thinking of a trapped spirit becoming free as I read this and flying off to eat the fruit. Nice writing - not sure about the last lines though. Dave |
