I wrote it last night, after getting 'beyond breathtaking' in my head, But I had a hard time of it. I like the first two stanzas, but I'm not sure of the rest. Your thoughts and suggestions are always welcome, thanks.
She stood and shared
With the world, her soul.
She let the winds embrace her,
As a departing sister.
Beyond breathtaking.
The cobalt sky swallowed
The sun, and blushed.
She studied the chagrin
Of the painted sky.
Overwhelming beauty.
She looked away,
Blinded by such beauty.
She sought comfort in her city lights,
The sickening glow of electric sin.
Perverse ignorance.
And even now she yearns.
To be blinded again.
She hungers for desolation
Among painted skies
And embracing winds.
Desperate need.
