I could have loved you
he whispered
broken bones collected at his feet
torn wings guiding him home
I would have torn the void apart to find you
too late, too late
fractured words in the breeze
a promise lost
a world divided
I would never have let you go
a choice
her choice
he knew, he knew
she was no bird, no cage could keep her
save the cage she chose
blue cage
old cage
room enough in her heart for love
but never room enough for me
