Had U Known

Had you known I was their Would you have seen me saw Yr' running beside a flock of birds My black wings beating To the inhale and exhale Of yr' every breath And should I stop.. Would you have stopt' To watch for shadows Of my passing Or would you have let The rapid snap of my feathers Propel you faster forward Toward the wood Holy unaware I love The brittle crush Of Autumn leaves Beneath your feet If I had been that bird Would you have freed your mind And dared to dream of worlds Where every stride is stanza Every path a poem of our endurance Or simply passed me Bye
