the warmth in each footstep
touching pavement
touching temptation
to run
with no name
and no birth
I am forever
and nothing

if only life could be
a sensation
a moment
caressed and changed
with voices
nothing but constant contact
between words
letting the distance fall
between unknowns
to create a spark
burning the clothes that keep us

focusing on single breaths
single thoughts
single movements
with no past
a funeral for smoke and mirrors
an autumn of emotions
colours that blind
colours that bind
bodies through air
souls through explosions

life
shaped into a paper crane
made to fly

Beautiful writing, you wrapped it all so perfectly.

I came because of your title--I have a thing for paper cranes...

I'm so glad I did too. I very much enjoyed the read.

I'll be around more often, for sure.
