nightfall descends
with the setting of the Sun
a flashlight in the sky
the moon’s eye full of folly
sisters twin souls
broken wings left stunned
eager to escape locked cages
they ride the trolly
hobo wrap tethered to a whipping cane
a small supply of food
chastised with weight
run run run fast now
to negate the certain tame
one runs the other stumbles and falls
too late
surrounded by sirens
left alone without hope
her legs crumble with fear
Mother rescues
as she calls her a dope
her sister kept running
recoiling as captive with heart sincere
I will return for you my love my life
to recover a spirit unbroken
let one of us be freed from this strife
independence left swollen
Women standing tall
No fear left spirit fulfilled
the Lord will hear your call
a nightmares end is real
