Blacker Beauty

Free I must roam.

By Novel AllenPublished 3 years ago β€’ Updated 3 years ago β€’ 1 min read
Q

Once they tried to corral me.

Cage me.

Harness me.

Can you harness the Heavens?

But though I loved my little friend,

I broke free

I am the Black Beauty which flies free upon the Heather

Can you not see the wide open Heather

That purple-flowered Eurasian heath

That grows abundantly upon the Moorland

And upon the vast Heathland

Here I roam free

I am a mountain.

I am a stream.

I am a river.

I am a dream.

I exist within moments,

Driven by whims and fancies.

I am a free spirit

Untamable

Who can tame the wind?

See me as I am.

A force to be reckoned with!!!!!!!!

    I loved this piece and they message behind it! We should love people for who they are and not try to change them, we don't need to take offence to how other portray themselves as that's just how they are! Such a deep piece, I needed this today! πŸ’œ
