Freeing Forty-Seven
Blue, clear skies where the fairest of the flock is marching alongside the wind
Purplish black thunder clouds singing with immense bass, while lightening dances to every note
Your smile makes me smile, your embrace is my shield
Talking to you as if I am having a conversation by myself
It’s been 4 scores since I last felt this way
Blind with no cane, the unknown surrounds me
A wandering nomad with no destination but always in motion
There was never a future planned with you
You were just that long breath of fresh air after a 4 by 4 relay
Flowers blooming from concrete, so strange and rare but still beautiful
Petals bursting open and screaming “Hello, World”
My spirit now yearns for yours
Your face plays over and over in the movies directed by my thoughts
Barbed wire fences to keep feelings in and loving out
Jailhouse orange is the new trend for the fall
My feelings are forbidden to be formed into words and sentences
They cannot exist
Releasing of the purest and whitest of doves
Let the forbidden fruit grow and ripen for the late harvest
I will let you go
And hopefully one day you will return to me
