i have a broken wing,

i cannot fly

i cry at night

but this i can defeat,

all i want is to fly high

and never touch my feet.

I close my eyes and all i see is

plums and hunter greens

from the trees

i smell wood

birds sing

lighter shade of gray

as your shadow

softly touches sunlight

a sign of

purity and love.

lower your weapons

hold your tongues

your hate turns into dust

your love rises with us

prosperity

abundance

no lust

smell of your musk.

the long train

from her plum dress

rest below the guests

he grabs a sword

they pray to Lord

blessing holy grounds

to a love once bound

steps of a stallion

crush dead leaves

slowly marching from a soul

once set free

musical whispers

blow a dandelion in the air

she reaches for a sword

doesn’t say a word

slices her dress free

for all eternity.

The Forest
