fly away
The moist feeling of morning grass on her back, and raven black hair sprawled out like a sea on it. Arms folded behind her head, and the humming of cicadas in the distance. The wind blew gently, tugging at the grassy hill top, and the atmosphere above was blue and luminous. Half closed eyes gazed up at the endless expanse of azure, mind forming images with the clouds.
They made her think back, and it made the young woman wonder if he was thinking of her too. Probably not. She let out a sigh,
a sigh of something like acceptance, or perhaps nostalgia, and stretched her legs so that her sandals slipped off. Absentmindedly, a hand reached up, maybe to grasp at the face of someone who would've, should've been holding her now in his lap, or maybe to touch the clouds and bring them down to her.
A butterfly touched down on her finger, its wings a brilliant orange in color. Her heart should've lurched, and she should've shook it away. But her eyes focused on the insect, perhaps relating it to some obscure detail about the person she sought to forget now. Maybe he liked butterflies, maybe it was color of its wings,, either way, it was the closest thing she had to him now.
"Why did you come here?" Spoke a voice. "To get away I guess."
"From me?" It replied. "No! To get away from the city, you know i didn't want-" For a second, she raised her voice, showing a hint of emotion, startling the butterfly and it flew away. Clenching her fist in frustration, her hand fell to the ground lifelessly.
goodbye my sparrow
