Bent and Broken Wings (Free verse) by TLRufener
Lying alone at night Unclothed, unloved, Remembering a not-so-distant touch, I wonder why My angel was taken from me. Perfection in my eyes; Gently caressing with his touch; The only love I have ever known Now, only a memory. That touch still lingers As does a burning kiss Drawing m nearer to the edge. The edge of reason and respect; Of following orders and commands. Doing what the heart feels Instead of what the mind thinks. Being able to turn back. Asking forgiveness for something That can never be fully explained; Never fully understood. Lying alone at night Wrapped in unloving blankets, Remembering a forbidden love, I cry for the loss of my angel. I gave my hopes and dreams, And now leave them forever On his bent and broken wings.
