Aviation remnants
This mind of mine was meant to fly
But a cage is all I was given
Hollow bones
I stared at the bottom of clouds for hours
Seeking shape in the shapeless
Sporadic mind
Stand still
I traced each line until an informal design manifested
Shadows faded into vermillion oblivion
Oblivious steel wings brought me here as I observe the stints that feather my own
With hopes they carry me home
The surreal feeling of floating
Laying at the top of the world
Waiting for the fall
The curve hugged the sky and I felt the light change
The wind sharp on my face
It's a chill that lingers
A solemn embrace
Mystery in the mist at the base of the mountain
The grounds of my ungrounded fears
Looking through a new lens
Dauntless dawn carries warmth within
A warmth I thought I'd loss
Discover a new form of flight beyond the strength of bone
Following the wisdom of the wind and the ones who've soared before you
Let the shoal flake and crumble
A shell of who I once was
Let the feathers float away with the falling leaves and lingering worries
Behind the trees
This fall is necessary
Fire
Inside the line of fire
Flames on the horizon
Love me to ashes
False wired god
Dying with blooming deprivation
Vines insist to strangle with hopelessness
A sea of misery grows before me
I'm drowning in this reality
Bury the soul
Call it home
Growing gardens out of a graveyard
Bury the soul
Call it home
Wither from the inside out
The rot within is exposed
Fleeting as the dark follows
With purpose pulled from each step
The light follows and bends
My skull ruptures and rends in this projection
Like blood to the canvas
The colors ascend and I am blossoming again
Ash amassed into matter
Growing gardens out of a graveyard
Rupture and rend my skull
Bury the soul
Call it a home
