The last flight...

They flew…

Swiftly, whirling together,

Their silhouettes-

Those slithering reflection on the vast sea!

She beheld-

Parking her dying soul,

On the old rugs of memories

She dusted her wings,

She once promised-

Of kissing those limitless horizons…

She beheld-

The fading sun,

The silent shores,

And those fallen flowers…

From behind the bar-less cage.

Something was missing in her,

Missing around her,

Deep in her, rested-

That fathomless void;

Shackling her spirit.

Those withered feathers,

Blame no wind-

Her cascading tears-

Shall meet that destiny!

For, she knew somewhere,

That hope shall bloom again-

From that abyss in her!

And she shall fly,

That day,

To that blank…
