flight
November 2, 2009
she runs
like the river
her bare feet slap the ground
with a light pitter-patter
that mockingly mimicks
the sound of raindrops
her long hair whips around
in harsh, angry waves
like a raging torrent
of emotion and turmoil
her slender hands reach out
of the rushing water
grasping for a branch–
a handle on life; an escape
but finding nothing
-
like the river
she runs
away from me.
