a poem from a cloud


fell onto my page in rage

              wanted to speak about 

age

             said it didn’t want to hurt any longer

wanted to run uphill with me 

                    to walk

 a labyrinth 

          asked to see how deep wounds were

  it was a repressed poem 

                             that wanted

Life wants steady poems 

                      with or without wounds

 
slashes superficial or deep

                running uphill or down

seeking 

                            labyrinths to erase 
  
 blurs with ease


        together find healing 

L O V E

                as principle

tasting freedom colours 

without 

                defence

                                   pages blank or 

               inked 

or mirrored

                     clouds happily sail across 

                      skies

                             seeking 

spiritual   surgery

I love how you used the oscillation of the different elements to extend the metaphor of the poems falling from a cloud, Ghairo.
