like heartbroken kites and homeless balloons







letting go would be my first
option too

but I'm not ready




so i guess it's stardust and dying angels

    I love how the title blends into the voice of the poem ... it has such a hopeless hopefulness to it that seems to say that angels never really die or homeless balloons never really let go ... they just float on stardust memories

    interesting take on the prompt I like it.. especially the line
    "but I'm not ready" the truth is raw and real.
