his eyes wandered into
the limitless,blue hued sky
his chirpy soul,
dancing to the rhythm
of the heavenly wind and waves.
his heart told him he could
climb the highest peaks
and catch hold of the clouds.
his soul within,singing
the harmonies of the song of life.
but as his fate would allow
his wings had been clipped, forever.
the only dance that his body could ever do
were the blinking of his oceanic eyes.
he would still never,
lose his hope of living,
for his love, his heartbeat
would jump, sing and dance
as his body, spirit and soul.
she would walk for him
take him to the wonderous places
those places, which existed
only in his dream world.
from the tallest of mountains,
to the densest of forests,
he'd go everywhere with her
as his magic vehicle.
though caged, this clipped bird
loved his free eagle's heart
didn't realise she wouldn't be
standing next to him forever
for she was free, and freedom ruled her
and she could never let it go.
an ill fated day came
when his eagle flew away
taking along with her,
his spirit, his heart
and his unfazed will to fight death.
she flew away, he collapsed
doctors then came barging in
through those white, hideous gates
for he'd decided, in that cage
his life now has to end
his soul says.
denial of death, tore him apart
his eyes kept fluttering
yet the doctors left him, unperturbed
left him alone, a living corpse
did not let him break free
of his motionless body.
he struggled to die
to leave his petrified body
and run away to the place
where his broken heart
would eventually find solace.
death sympathised with his struggle
came and stood beside him
a tunnel of white halo opened
in front of those oceanic eyes.
he could now run again
dance to his heart's rhythm
and jump so high he could
now sit on those silver clouds.
his lifeless body stared
at him, then at the i.v tube
where bubbles of air were present
instead of the fluid containing life
one bubble, tunneled into his blood
this relieving him of this dungeoned life
and allowed his soul to fly
he made his home in the velvet sky.
