She spread her wings and flew away,
I gazed so I thought
As she disappeared into the summer lights display.
I awoke in a ruined sanctuary.
Fallen pillars all around,
Mossy stones tell of rituals once made.
I find that I am far from home.
There was a light that beamed from the heavens.
I tried to walk towards it.
But I felt weakened and unable to follow it.
I found my legs were bleeding.
I could not feel them anymore.
This hemorrhage is hours long.
The coagulated blood showed the ground.
The crimson stain leading towards my own body.
I could taste my blood,
I could smell it, like iron.
I saw it,
the bone
the blood
my bone seeping through my skin,
my blood caressing it.
I shuddered for a moment.
I lay there staring at the heavenly light
that shown for above to afar.
My eyes swell up with tears.
That beautiful, heavenly light starts to blur.
I start to hurt knowing I tried to hard.
I tried to fly,
but I only ended up crashing.
Now fallen I can't get up.
And now I'll never reach that lustrous Light.
If only I could float.
Float towards you...
"They won't see, the fire you have lit inside of me. They look up, to the sky and wonder where you might be. They look up, without realizing they're standing in the palm of your land. I can't explain or understand. I just love you..."

I like it, a lot. Talk about mental picture! It was full of rich images. I don't know if I am correct but I sensed the division between the divine and desire object, and the one desiring. Sounds like the 18th century romanticism movement, keep up the good "words". Love you my friend!
