#morbidfascinationIts a morbid fascination of mineYearning to be freeBegging to stay cagedEnslavedThe mind is beautifulBut also a twisted cruel and torturous deviceThat leaves one reaching for loveCraving itStarvingKnowing its unrequitedAnd chooses to remain shackledTo the melancholyThe woesThe numbing satisfactionWell numb isn't the wordIt's a peaceful floatingAs if one is suspended in deathBecause if you can't feel painYou can't feel your heart shatteringInto a tiny million piecesEvery person experiences an ethereal sojourn that changes their perception on the grand scheme of life. They awaken to a different experience shadowed from the previous day. Some awaken to happiness, contentment, and absolute paradise while others awaken to tragedy, despair, and a sense of hopelessness that cannot be shaken. Tattered Wings is an epitome of one poet's journey starting with heartbreak and devastation that left her shattered, in pieces, yearning for a reprieve, and baring her soul sprawled out on the floor. You can see the poet as she struggles to overcome the daily challenges life has presented to her and begging the Almighty for a reprieve. A darkness shrouds her and she feels the inky black abode breathing down her neck as she pushes forward, some days barely being able to drag herself from the abyss she dips her toes in. She while aways the sunrises taking for granted the brush strokes of joy and love that temper her dark canvas while the following sunsets leave her feeling desolate and forlorn for taking such immeasurable grace without appreciating it. Follow this woman as she shows us her dark pilgrimage in this beautifully crafted poetic series that paints a canvas using the inky darkness of her soul as her light is trying to break free to set her soul alight.
