Gossamer Wings


by Diena Taylor

Hiya there. :) Gather 'round, ELF poetry for all! This is inspired by a story I'm writing that has the same title (AT, Alexia, I finally decided...), however, it accompanies the as-of-now unfinished Fragile Sanity re-write, as did the Hardest Goodbye. Sorry 'bout all this code-breaking poetry... but the angst has to come out in some medium, and this is the safest.

Notes: Umm... breaks the code.

Roses planted in the darkness

Sweetly blossoming in the dawn

A fine dew nestled in silk-soft petals

Soon to be gone with the rising of the sun.

 

Freshly dug, the earth here is

Newly planted is the grass

People come here broken-hearted

And leave the same way they did come.

 

Once the days 'round here were brighter

More so than the coming dawn

Questions, too many to be answered

Come in form of grief, and mourn.

 

The others come here to lay flowers

And to weep some scattered tears

For to them alone, this is a message

Truly the good die young.

 

Heaven's gates open wide to you

Beg you please, come step inside

This is everything you ever wanted

While those of us down here plead for your return.

 

If we never showed we loved you

While you were among us

My friend, we do regret it

And if I had to do it again... I would.

 

You're safe and sound now, though

With some good friends there too

We know that you'll be happiest

Fit with gossamer wings...

 

So you can fly.


I'm sorry it's kind of depressing... I'm in another angsty mood... <sighs> Just repeat after me: This is AU. Thank you.
