Paper Plane (@unfurled)
I was torn away from everyone,
From my familial pad,
From my mum,
My dad,
My brothers,
My sisters,
Everyone.
It would be an understatement to say I was sad.
All I remember was pain,
From my ripped left edge,
And a look, my last,
At the blue lined face of a sister,
With her corner fluttering in farewell.
I remember my mother's face,
Crying, crumpled,
As the inky words gracing her features,
Dissolved into inky blots,
At an alarming pace.
Enveloped by two hands,
Sweaty,
Fleshy,
I felt trapped.
I couldn't move.
I could see light.
Snippity-snip,
Metal gleamed,
And I thought,
Oh Lord, this is the end.
I shut my eyes and gnawed my lip,
At the approaching snippity-snip.
I was going round the bend,
As it got to me,
The stress,
The helplessness,
The suspense.
Then my previous pain was gone,
And my ripped left edge was right again.
I slept.
The sensation of being folded,
Is what woke me out of my slumber,
And into consciousness I jolted.
I wasn't a bird,
I wasn't an origami crane,
Only when I soared,
Tasting the air and freedom,
Did I realise, that,
I was a paper plane.
(A/N:For those who didn't get it, this is about a piece of paper that gets torn from a pad and turned into a paper plane.)
It would be sublime,
If you could spare me some time,Click.
It'll only take a moment,
Then read, vote and comment.
