Spirited,
Born with wings.
I could never fly.
I’ll learn
I’ll practice
I’ll fail.
Perch me upon a tower
I’ll sit
I’ll look
I’ll wail.
Or will I?
Won’t I?
I’ll hide it
Conceal it from
My own eyes
-no yours.
I’ll always see it there
Taunting me
-Temperamental child
Smell the roses
Sip from the cup
It’s all there for us
To see
-but me.
I’ll never let you see it
The pain I hide within
I’ll never let you feel it
That love I call a sin
Do I?
Is it me?
No it’s them
They who cast the words
They who beat the child
And drown the pups
They who ridicule
And mock me
They are lonely
In demise.
All lonely
All but me.
I have your love
Sinful or not
It’s godsend
By me
It’s free!
Great, just great, and spirited
