Below the fall of the reign of Us
Our world; beyond the extraordinary fell
A lifetime of waiting and pacing the wall
Remained fractured
The land torn in two;
our universe collides
Into a celestial battallion
At the foot of the Queen

nice write.
I'd have preferred something longer and more emotional
but I loved the phrase:
Our world; beyond the extraordinary fell
A lifetime of waiting and pacing the wall
Remained fractured
-
descriptive. this has such strong and powerful imagery, it just grabs the reader. you've used the prompt well. keep penning


-
your title is:
learning to fly
or
learning to fall.
I couldn't decide.
