they say it will go away.
they say all i have to do is blow
and the ashes will sail away
like the have fluttering wings.
but i tell them that hurt
is not light; it is heavy,
and i carry a heavy heart.
but they reply that if i try,
the hurt will become a feather,
only a reminder
of the bird that once flew.
i am ready to blow.

inconsequential: yeah. thanks for pointing that out. & I write cause I want to get comments. no. I write ONLINE cause I want to get comments and improve. usually I write just for the feeling of putting the pen on paper and feeling all the words flow out.
