Breaking bondage To Freedom

She is chained...the sharp steel chain stark against the snow white of her feathers...She's chained to the ground...chained to the earth...kept away from her home, the azure sky...She screams indignation...at this insult to a child of the sky...She screams in frustration and fury...Rage seizes her limbs and she starts to flap her wings...Her wrist is bound to the ground in chains...She flies up towards the sky with fervor...her wings splayed...beating to the rhythm of her heart...She flies...Till she reaches the limit of the chain...as the chain struggles against her fervor to break free...her wrist chafes and starts to bleed...Droplets of blood curve around her forearm...She starts beating her wings with all her might...With a final thrust from her wings...she wrenches herself free...Finally the child of the sky is one with her home again... 

Mood Swings

My mind flashes crimson, jade, amber, ebony...Even white when feathers flutter through...solace...
I sigh again...I'm back home after The War...Yet it continues to haunt me...

As I Bleed

My heart lay suspended in mid-air above me.Bound by strange icy shackles.She could only watch,only watch as I lay bleeding. She wanted to help but cold frigid pain held her back.She screamed for me to stay but the harm was done.I had cut myself.And all she could do was watch...only watch as I bled...
