She
who wore the weight
of her wings
where her feet could not walk
Where her hymns would sing
Out loud,
her call that could
not be muted
She
where her feet may fail
She
where she put the broken pieces
back together
Where she mounted
The heaviness of her
Bare wings
Where the weight of her
Past had to chase her
She
who wore the weight
of her very wings
In the places
where she could
not once breathe
She
who thought
she could never achieve
who alas
took
flight.
