albatross awake

run your kite free
from pain and sorrow
we have seen
every now and then
you look down
to check on me

this chance
our treasure
last dance forever
we nest for eternity

we may fall
break a wing
above the open sea
for as long as we
stay together
like an Awake tea

Your poetry is amazing...reminds me of a poem by Coleridge:

Oh! Well a-day! What evil looks / Had I from old and young! / Instead of the cross, the albatross / About my neck was hung
