EDGE OF SALVATION

“You are nothing
except what I tell you you are.”
Bleeding corpse—
Broken heart flying on ragged wings
Desperate, injured butterfly
Fighting to cross the sea with two
tattered wings
Seeking escape from the memory
Of the cocoon from which hatched…
…this miserable life…

What is more beautiful
Than fighting, searching so determinedly
For salvation across a chasm—
—on broken wings?

The inspirational story of a being twice damned.
