"Man wants to put everything in a cage ~ and he does not spare himself. "

 ~ KateyB

the illusions built over years

finally fell from the worn window frame

pane by pane they hit the ground

shattering into slivers, jagged sharps

the fragility of the core

dare not pick them up

to risk cutting and bleeding out

exposed to the wind and rain and sun

there became a strength

as wings began to unfold

first the moistness risked the filmy screen

see through as dried 

unpierceable by human scorn

lightness of the innocence brand new

with ancient eyes embedded

the silence became nothing to you 

yet she knew that she knew

and

she loved you no matter where you are

she loves you into the fullness of light

beyond the simple heat mirages 

she was, you must know,

she is, you must feel
