Prisoner for Eternity

Prisoner for Eternity

Hair raised as the darkness nears
no one there to help. To be.
Whimpers wriggle free, from the dungeon
of the cavern. No one there to help.
His fears rise from deep inside.
He’s been there since the beginning,
Beginning. An infinate amount of time.
Moon light just seeps. Edges. Crawls away.
From his grasp through the bars.

A faint hush, a whoosh of wind. Crush
-es her wings. She flies. I fly. Through the air.
Friends whisper in my ear.
The gentle call of the hawk from the east.
A dabble in the lake, deep and black. The breathing
in the cold night. Not mine. His. His.
I can feel it. The tingle on my cheeks.
The extra ruffle through my wings.
It makes a smile come to my face.
The clouds fly above me, ascending to
the heavens. As i, like gravity and me,
cooperate. Until my soles feel
grass. Welcome home.

The moon calls to me. No matter
how far it crawls from me. My
prison. Bars holding me in. My heart.
Flying to her. I miss her. Certainly.
Owls hoot; how strange. Maybe...
Thudding increases deep within me.
Mouth becomes dry. Eyes, alert.
Everywhere. Where? It can’t be.
Memories flash quickly. Her.
Us. Together. To be.

Hand in hand. We walk.
My prinsoner on my right.
Calling us to be free: the deities.
The soft green orbs that gleam.
My wings are curled around him.
His immortal arms around me.
Immortal calm. Never-ending silence.
We. Us. Together.
The birds quietly rejoice.
Deep in the dark. I hear them.
The daemons speak of our reconciliation.
I smile. He smiles. We smile.

Tender hands has she.
Like silk it feels to me.
Strong powers for us somewhere.
Hiding, provoking with care.
The royal care on my skin.
Makes me weep, as we win.
She can set me free.
Her. Him. You. Me. We.
Though this day, for eternity.
Her. Him. You. Me. We.
