HE LOVES ALL OF ME

CHAPTER 3 DESIRES

A free bird leaps

on the back of the wind   

and floats downstream   

till the current ends

and dips his wing

in the orange sun rays

and dares to claim the sky.

But a bird that stalks

down his narrow cage

can seldom see through

his bars of rage

his wings are clipped and   

his feet are tied

so he opens his throat to sing.

The caged bird sings   

with a fearful trill   

of things unknown   

but longed for still   

and his tune is heard   

on the distant hill   

for the caged bird   

sings of freedom.

The free bird thinks of another breeze

and the trade winds soft through the sighing trees

and the fat worms waiting on a dawn bright lawn

and he names the sky his own

But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams   

his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream   

his wings are clipped and his feet are tied   

so he opens his throat to sing.

The caged bird sings   

with a fearful trill   

of things unknown   

but longed for still   

and his tune is heard   

on the distant hill   

for the caged bird   

sings of freedom.

Chapter 3

Destiny wakes up in bed alone as she does most mornings. She turned to the spot where Shawn is supposed to be and lets out a loud sigh. She thinks to herself "Will this nightmare ever end" Through it all she still holds on to the love of the past with hopes that it will change the future. Hope is all she has left and the desire to be loved. She wished she could escape the torment but also didn't want to give up. She loves him but is he ever going to love her.

She sits up in bed and grabs her robe. She goes into the bathroom to get ready to start her day. She brushed her teeth, washed her face and got in the shower. She turned it on hot because it always tends to soothe her.

"AAAAhhhhh" she says as the water hits her skin. She lets the water run over her face and hair as the hot water massages her soft skin. She lathers up with her peach shower gel, that's her favorite flavor and fragrance.She inhaled the sweet fragrance as she washes it off her body. She steps out the shower and stands in front of the mirror and sighs " uggghhh I hate my body".

At one point she was confident in her body and her beauty but dealing with Shawn that no longer exists within her. Her phone rings as she looks at it its a message from Shawn . She scrunched her face up and thought "that's wierd". The message said " thanks for last night sexy".
