blue

blue

my soul

longs for

the blue

peace

quiet

calm

away from

heartache

beyond

black and white

grey mist

and shadows

moving slow

gracefully

carrying me

to sleep

drifting into

the blue

where i can

forgive myself

move on

and dream

of oceans

and places

i have yet

to go

falling

wind

rushing

eyes

blinking

unclear

of where

i will

land

fearing

how

hard

i will

fall

wondering

will it

hurt?

will i

break?

will i

be caught?

or

will i

stand up

and

walk

away?

feather

some say

love can be

like a feather

floating with

and against

the wind

twirling

twisting

spinning

like a dancer

drifting away

traveling far

from another

the feather

will fly

away from

its lover

lost

in endless blue

searching

for the way

back

winds will pass

with little light

and eventually

the feather

will land

when it does

It can be

captured

and held tight

in hand
