The Sound of Beating Wings - Jeniferever

They are leaving now

To the sound of beating wings

To images of a scenery

A scenery whose colours

Have started to fade

And whose brightness is passing away

Left us nothing but cold

It’s not just in the air

It’s the gap between us

It’s in our voices as we speak

In sentences that we say

In words once beautiful

Saw you found something new

Something that’s more for real

Not as fragile as we used to be

But would you cross the line for me?

For a second let your heart beat

The way it used to beat?

The would the words get thir meaning back

The sentences their depth

Our voices their warmth

And your eyes would they once again

Burn as bright as they once did?

Burn as if you were seventeen?

They are leaving now

To the sound of beating wings

To images of a scenery

A scenery whose colours

Have started to fade

They are leaving now

Just like the easier days left us to die

Just like the loss of you

Left the scars that will always be a part of me
