Poem #2

Last night I left my body

My soul was finally free. I swayed in the wind and danced beneath the trees. The air whispered in my ear and told me it was time to leave. So that's what I did and now I am free. I don't want to be trapped in this body. I want my soul to fly free. So here I am.  Lost beneath the trees. My soul left my body in an attempt to flee, but I know In the morning back to my body I'll be. As I sit in life I wait for night to come. So once again I can dance beneath the trees. This night was different. I chose my end. And now my soul will be free for all eternity. Next time you feel the wind dancing through your hair. You will know it's me. Don't be sad because I am finally free.  

My Poem

I was only a child then

Shuttering in my cold and broken heart 

A tempest of snow under a darkening sky

And I stumbled there stumbled and fell 

Allowing the sleep to take me into its warm embrace

But I did not sleep.  I did not rest 

For the ink spatters grew near

To see what lay dying there

One whispered to me,”child? Do you breathe?”

The other pecked at my blue hand.

“Child open those eyes. Let me see into you.” 

“Too tired. Too hurt. Let the darkness warm me.”

“No child! For you can stop this storm. Now Open your eyes and let your fire burn.”
