Flying Away – Friday 16th March 2001

Flying Away

a pretty person flies away
a pretty day,
turns away from the sun
and chooses to die

flying away from the world
when it starts to scream
creep into bedchambers
when you want to dream

a pretty person turn to sigh
having dipper her fingers,
into metal
she can only wonder why
a daytime spent alone
an evening on your own
a pretty person flies away
to find another day
