home

by Shannondoah

like a crimson

wing

unapologetic

phoenix rising

up

from

the

ashes

of yesterday

of today

of tomorrow’s sorrows

forgiveness

release, and then

peace

soaring above 

the 

sun

and around the

moon

talking to stars

they tell me

all

i must know

for tomorrow

for today

for yesterday

so i keep

trusting

and i 

rise

and i glide

and breathe deep

the air

as it flows

beneath my wings

carrying me

home

to you
