Wings

by Lady Eponine Black

Eponine poem. from her point of view, to Marius. "Tied by the broken strands of a barricade fated To Fall"

I'm flying, Marius.

On silver wings.

Flying.

Soaring.

Fluttering like a butterfly.

Like an angle.

On iridescent paper wings.

I'm no angle, Marius.

But i'm flying.

Held aloft by dreams.

Splintered dreams.

Shards of silver thread.

Fragments.

Wasted.

I'm swooping, Marius.

I can't stay still.

I'm floating.

Drifting.

Wandering

Suspended.

I'm flying.

I can see the stars, Marius.

They remind me of you.

Shining.

Shining

Unblemished.

And millions

Of

Miles

Away.

Lost to me, Marius.

You're lost to me.

I'm smiling, Marius.

Thinking of you.

Of your warm honey eyes

Looking at me.

Which you

Never

Did

Much

Of

Anyway.

Anyway, i'm happy, see?

Above transcendent clouds.

Air born.

Limitless.

Like an angle.

On hazy wings.

An angle.

A wicked angle.

Discolored.

Tainted.

I'm no angle.

I'm the devil.

But devils fly to, Marius.

Devils fly.

But

Devils

Fall,

Marius.

Devils fall.

I'm crying, Marius.

I'm flying on. And i'm flying.

Drifting.

Alone.

Detached.

I miss you, Marius.

You'll never know how much.

I'm thinking of you.

Can't you feel it?

See, i'm still earthbound.

Tied by the broken strands of a barricade fated

To

Fall.

See, i'm here.

An angle on tarnished silvery wings.

Flying Marius,

Brief solace of winds in wings.

No reprieve.

See, i hear you.

See?

You'll never see.

But i'm flying, Marius.

A shattered angle.

Above a sifting world.

I'm changed, Marius.

We all change.

I daresay you have too.

I daresay i'll see you soon.

And i'll fall.

But now i'm flying.

But i'm no angle.

Devil on silver wings.

I'm in a cloud Marius.

Surrounded by shimmering tears.

I'm crying, Marius.

For what's been lost.

What was never found.

But i'm flying.

Tears falling.

I'm raining, Marius.

Catch me.
