Opening

Darkness in flight
morbid shadows feed upon loftily passion
theirs to keep
tearing dreams apart
trying to escape
but their thoughts begin
down in darkness so long

Their hearts pleading to sing a song
laughter buried long ago
they wish for freedom
I hear taunting crys
to open to life
fighting the darkness of wrathful night

Blinded by desire
They start to rise above
opening gateways
breaking chains
forbidden but undone

They only care to see
vivid dreams of them selves
rays of light break through
beautiful wings opening
with glisten and praise

Strong words made the poem a pleasure to read. I like the artwork. It made the poem take life.

Hard to see light in the darkness. I like the ending to this outstanding poem.

Ending this with open wings is a perfect way to describe your thoughts. Good job. I really like "they start to rise above": it gives me a freedom feeling.
