Beginning

Every beginning scares me,

Every foreign touch shakes me,

Every breath is calculated for me.

Every step of my time is looked at carefully,

Every move of mine is controlled.

I want to fly

To let my wings feel the touch of the wind,

Of the freedom that awaits me 

Since I was just a little girl. 

 

I want to leave the desire to taste the forbidden fruit

Let my heart devour,

Of the eternal fire that lives deep within me.

On the red sky dripps fragile tears

That break when they touch the ground

Cold and wet from lost love.

Trees bend because of the weight 

The soul I carry with me 

Every step of the way.

A bird crosses the horizon,

The sign I've been waiting for

For so long.

Dear Alisha, you are a amazing writer.
I want to fly
"To let my wings feel the touch of the wind,
Of the freedom that awaits me
Since I was just a little girl.

I want to leave the desire to taste the forbidden fruit
Let my heart devour,
Of the eternal fire that lives deep within me."
The above lines were my favorite. We need to dance on the edge to know, we had lived. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry and your thoughts.
