a dove inside

like birds,

we sat on

tree branches

of our own lives,

singing to please

others before

ourselves.

 

wherever

they flew,

we simply followed

mindlessly,

believing in desired

freedom and no

limits.

 

while others

sang of joy,

we preferred a more

mellow tune;

from our lips

we called out a sorrowful

melody that only

a few number could

understand.

 

a tragic end,

we faced together.

 

i saw you fall,

ever so gracefully,

to your death;

 

but before i could

mourn,

it was my turn to fall.

 

my world turned

cold and all my

nightmares were

alive.

 

at least now,

we're at ease

and together.
