Setting Free, Fly Away

Linked pinkie fingers, making a promise.

Swearing off the demons, and frights.

Pretending to be perfect, one more time.

Imagining the blur coming to a focus.

We will swear one more time, and hope for a happy ending.

Setting free our memories, sweet as a dove, yet not alright.

Watching them fly away, wistfully hoping for the uncertain.

Wishing in our own wishing well, for broken things.

Linked pinkie fingers, remembering and hoping.

Setting free our memories, watching them fly away.
