She danced wild and free
Only after breathing new air
She used to hide in darkness
Overtaking, overwhelmed, overthought
It was a prison
It was hell
Everyday a new breath is bestowed
Do not take for granted the life force instilled
For life is a series of fleeting moments
Never to be lived ever again
Even pain
And happiness
So remember the truth emanating from within
For that is all we know
Keep going little bird
Fly those wings
And find the real truth
As it's been waiting for you with baited breath

A New Beginning
Tony couldn’t sit still, crossing and uncrossing his legs, trying to calm his trembling hands as Clara stood at the office window deep in thought. The airline ticket in his shirt pocket moved to the beat of his heart¬– each beat bringing back the nightmare causing memories of the words he’d spoken over ten years ago. Thanks to Clara he’d finally gained the courage to buy that ticket.
