Into Her Freedom

I chased the love of my life

through all the beauty of our belonging

through all the pain of our shortcoming

all the way to the end

of the pier of our dreams

I ran as hard and fast as I could

but I couldn't make it in time

to hold her

she jumped anyway

into the unknown

into the life she thought she wanted

that we never had together

into her freedom.

A sad but lovely, moving, and meaningful metaphorical write, Pierre. I find your verses very emotive. Thank you, friend. Love and peace to you,

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
