More poems. . .o joy. .
Alright, here's another poem, I'm finally posting the one that I based a drawing off of..

Actually, the idea for the POEM came form a dream I had (big surprise)
And it turned kinda story-ish and less poemy-ish, and I'm not sure if I really like it, so lemme know what you think. ^_^

BARRED BEYOND DREAMS


A cool breeze ruffles my feathers
Willing me, beckoning, calling my name
Brilliant wings spread wide as the night
I leap.

And soar.

Alight upon shimmering wings
The wind beneath my breast
The mountains stretch out below me.
Vast, endless.
The moonlight dancing at their feet.

I gasp as the cold air bites into my skin
And rolls along my back.
Exhaling sharply, I climb higher and higher
Until I can see.
Everything.

With the world laid out before me
This is the way it was meant to be.

Until, my glorious wings are ripped from me
Leaving me stranded in a world that suddenly seems so harsh.
So unforgiving.
I scream out, and it echoes, cruelly.
Among the jagged peaks I plummet towards.

And there is darkness.

Fighting to escape a deathly embrace from my sheets, I sit up.
And sigh.
Cold sweat trickles down my back, and the wind outside my window
Whistles and laughs softly.
Mocking me.
Denying me the sky.
