Forgiveness/New Friend
“Madness!”, was the word
That flickered among the two birds
You left all your wings on the staircase
And so did I– damaged and bruised
A vulture looking to recover
Wrought with sour mind
I trekked for weeks
Scavenging
Trying to save my soul
Time flies by
And so do we
Migrating back– projectiles, and distance
Color our conversation
Talk about life
Talk about breaking
Talk about ours and yours and mine
Spilling out all the stress
Glancing, recollecting, dancing:
A new friendship.
All over our words
Licking our wounds
Now we have healed
