Whooshing and whirring,
It’s the clouds dripping onto my feathers,
Seeping into my soul
Warning its hypnotized bliss;
Waxing into creases of a new dawn.
And no more do I need feathers
Or a crown of flowers;
Only my wings suffice.
You frolic like a child,
At the notion of infusing iridescence
Into my bones,
When all I ask for is the candescence
Of embers
Yet, it took not a blink for you
To brim ebony into my hollow bones.
You take flight
A glowing bird of the night
engulfed by
magnificent wings
Soul souring
Drowning is the sky in majestic hues of sapphire
Wings dropping feathers as you dance through the hours
Whooshing and whirring
You
Take flight
