In the dead of silence on a cold night
A piercing scream shattered it all
At the banks of a river a lonely woman cries into the night
She has no name, no family and no outlook on life
Her feathered wings, torn out of her and lost in the river
Gripping the wet dirt, she screams in agony
As she isn't loved by her longtime mate
On her knees, each tear shatters on the ground like glass
She lays down, resting her cheek on the cold ground
"The Earth" she says, "...is the only one I can rest my weary head on."
She closes her eyes
As she wishes she can fly back home
This poem was so awesome! I loved it
