Wings of Love

A soul once soared
with the wind as one
with the azure sky
High above herself,
above the clouds,
soaring wild, soaring free.

Feeling as though her
essence had been set
to drift along throughout
eternity. Love had given
her wings to rise high above
herself, higher than she ever
dreamed.

Suddenly, she was taken
from flight and hurled
to the ground heartlessly.
A soul empty, left heart
broken, alone in a reflection
of her tender tears.

Only the illusion of once sweet
memories to share her camaraderie.

Flames of love that once burned
deeply within now torn asunder.
Fires of desire now gone nothing
left but smoldering ashes.

A delicate spirit once radiated
a beautiful, sweet serenade.
It now cries softly with the
haunting melody of a
mourning dove.

Heart once alive, touched
with the beauty and grace
of love. Turned to stone
it lies cold and still,
a mere apparition of what
used to be.

Even though what was once
found, has ceased to exist,
she bears no regret.

For whatever is and whatever
shall be, Once something so
precious rested in her touch.
Wherever fate may place her
destiny, this soul once soared
on the wings of love....
