This was written for Three Word Wednesday. Love songs and stories and poems often describe being in love like flying - the weightlessness, the freedom of it something too strong to be tethered to Earth. But unrequited love? It is the strongest prison ever built. The heart is frozen in time and even when the rest of you can move on there is always part of you that is marked theirs. I have also been somewhat obsessed with bird imagery lately - eagles and falcons and the such. Vultures are far uglier, and smellier, but even they can fly. Writing is like flying, I think, and the more one can write honestly about life, the more one's repulsive vultures turn into eagles. I hope that you enjoyed Differ. Halt. Imagine. :)

This is wonderful. It would actually fit perfectly at the dverse poets recent prompt. Thanks for sharing a further note. :)
