Birds

Your heart is
pounding against my chest
at a steady

beat

beat

beat.

I feel the rythym
taking you along
my entire
length,

this whole body.

You make me feel beautiful
again,
and I do hope
that the feeling is
mutual.

I feel like
we are two birds
trapped in the same cage.
Wired in and starved
for the air
and the beating

of some other hearts
and some other places.

I'm content to love you
as long as we are
shut in,
and maybe after;

or i might
fly away.

Please tell me what you think

    this is beautiful, from the start to end. I love the simplicity of your write, the way you spread your feelings so well throughout- and the ending was just amazing. I simply love the last stanza- it painted so much imagery. I love your style.

    loved this lots

    What a sweet love poem. The form is spread out, yet, enforces strength as refrain. There are points where sound aid and fits the target mood.
