Aysha's Bird

little bird
on my window sill
with broken wing
yet you sing

every night
there you are
like a gift
a shining star

alone I lie
with loves remains
your tender song
		 a sooth refrain
love letters burnt
		  more pain

Your melody gives me flight
       maybe I too can find my way
with mended wings
       may we both fly to better days

Even though, one should be optimist, things always could be better.

You poetry walks right past the superficial and artificial and tackles the depth of emotions, loved this.

Beautiful. Great rhymes. I'm not very good at rhyme so my poems are mainly free verse.
