Birds Of A Feather

And A Lover’s Transformation

By Kelli Sheckler-AmsdenPublished about a year ago 1 min read

I saw her

Dancing in the moonlight

I saw her

Howling to her love

I saw her

Surrender to the midnight

I saw her

Flying up above

I saw her

Mimic wings like ravens

I saw her

Freely take the sky

I saw her

Spirit joining heaven

I saw the

Human in her die

I saw her

Circling her lover

I saw her

Join him neath the stars

I saw her

Basking under cover

I saw her

Offer him her scars

I saw her

Last night, for the last time

I saw her

Give her life away

I saw her

Becoming intertwined

I saw her

Never more that day
