Back When I Felt Like a Sky Hungry Kite

Back When I Felt Like a Sky Hungry Kite

I still don’t know how

   I feel today ..

But I do know, I once

felt like a magnificent,

   sky hungry kite ..

That is, until you chose

to eclipse me

and then your shadow

blocked out,

   every ounce of my light ..

Now I stumble around in

the darkness

feeling my way forward

a bit at a time

   searching for morsels to eat ..

But I doubt very much like

the phoenix,

either resurrection, rebirth

or revival will

    remain on the menu all week ..
