Hail to my wounded weary spirit;
That more lonely than ever is waiting;
Waiting for deliverance…
Deliverance to join eternity…
Eternity devoid from transience and mortality;
My soul doesn’t accept my body;
My soul is ready to leave…to FLY
But why is it still surrendered to the body, again?!
Why am I still here with ringed tears in my eyes,
Ready to drop down, again?!
Tears as delicate as dews of autumn garden
And patting the rosy cheek of body’s regret
Ah, I’m still looking up to the sky
And waiting for years in vain!
Waiting for revealing a forgotten bitter truth
that isn’t mine…while it is.
I’ll repress tears, again…
And won’t let cloudy eyes rain;
And leave silence on its own;
And won’t let mirror break of woe.
I’ll make the sky shout;
Call the birds to a symphonious;
And keep on my way that much
TO MAKE THE BODY ACCEPT!

I’ll repress tears, again…
And won’t let cloudy eyes rain;
And leave silence on its own;
And won’t let mirror break of woe.
I’ll make the sky shout;
Call the birds to a symphonious;for these words penned lighten the soul
and not let the world around you woe
stunning dear one as always you are my freind
hugs always Angel♥♥

Lines filled with imagery; creative interpretation of the picture presented to inspire in the contest. Good flow. You have been Hoodwinked by The Poetic Bandits - better late than never. Hope you enjoyed your day in the spotlight a while ago.

Sweetheart, this was so beautifully penned, some bitterness, sadness and the yearning for the body to accept its mortality. You've written this is a very captivating way, makes the reader think and leave him/her in deep thoughts. Good luck in the contest.
Love
