These wings, they push against my flesh, longing to break free. The restraint causes me such pain. I long to spread them open and take flight. If I could, I would fly to you. Soaring above you, watching over you, protecting you, and in the deepest darkness of night as you sleep, I would come to you, stand before you, look upon you with nothing but undying love. I would lie next to you and wrap my wings around you to keep you safe and warm. Then as the morning came, I would ascend into the sky, taking with me the memory of your warmth, the beating of your heart, the sound of your breathing, and the look of peace upon your face. Any price, I would gladly pay, if only to walk with you, at your side, my wings extended, my heart in the palm of my hands, my arms outstretched to you, and with just a look, show you how much you have always meant to me. For now though, I will come to you for those peaceful moments, hold onto them for as long as I possibly can, and I will leave as quietly as I arrived. Each time, leaving a feather behind, to let you know that I was there, and that you are loved, adored, always on my mind,......and FOREVER in my heart.
