The priest and the whippoorwill can’t save me

I love the sound of whipping wind through my ears.
It lets me know I’m not the only one who screams
As it cuts me and bombards me like a thousand knives flung through the thin December air, I laugh.
My time has come to finally leave the world that left me long ago. A world I never let go.
So standing alone in my barren land, I’ll confess my sins to the trees.

In a list

    Great poem with some fantastic imagery. Short and simple but very powerful, works brilliantly in tandem with the picture.
