Forever Carried Away

With prose…

I saw only with my eyes,

as the words left my hand 

 

With poetry…

my eyes were abandoned,

leaving only my heart 

 

But in the distance played a lyric,

freeing what my words

could never unchain 

 

And hearing its melody,

my heart forever carried away

  —in song 

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: August, 2016)
