The Burden of Freedom

The Burden of Freedom

A Poem by Satoshi IroTzu

Cutting through the sky
with its metal wings;
all clear ahead, 
well spirited, unlimited
like in the sweetest dreams.

Sensation is hindered
by small favors;
weighing more under obligations, 
caring eager souls to their promised destinations.

Each flight is slower, 
dragging through the light air; 
trapped under their bleeding hearts, 
for salvation among clouds and saints;
as they reach for feather wings with their names.

Old now, 
rusty, empty,
nothing of joyful flight left;
only with the message that gnaws its mind;
freedom is a matter of state
not of the sky.

Your words written like a ancient and wise poet.
"Old now,
rusty, empty,
nothing of joyful flight left;
only with the message that gnaws its mind;
freedom is a matter of state
not of sky."
I loved the above lines. Freedom is a open word. If you never knew freedom. Hard to define. Thank you Satoshi for sharing the amazing poetry.

Critique: (Cutting through sky) the sky - The noun phrase sky is missing a determiner before it.
(not of sky) the sky - The noun phrase sky is missing a determiner before it.

Review: Nice imagery that empowers the metaphorical sense of your poem. A pleasure to read Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!
