Wild as Terror first freed
from heavy chains,
the wind breathes
me home.
Naked, I am held
as starlight flickers in feathered arcs.
The form I wear
veils my heart from you,
wrapped in a restless
pulse of longing.

With each life, a new body;
wings reborn, expanding
toward eternity.

Speak
to know my soul,
to know the lessons
carried in my wings.
