Apr 2018
Her emerald green eyes wept tears of red.
The man she loved is now dead
Not literally
But in her mind he might as well be.
Her self-esteem and her heart both shattered
His last kiss still carved on her lips
burning like a fire
She sat and wondered
"How did a night of dancing and laughter
become a toxic, deafening silence?"
How could she have been so foolish?
As the blood started to drip from her hands
feathers appeared, forming golden wings
Broken
Lost
Forsaken
Fragile
and yet still hopeful
she flew towards the silver moon
Finally free
