Airda Jones Poems

What was once one piece
No longer can be
Now that times have changed
And is no longer free
...

Butterfly, you flew away
And at first I didn't know
How each hard day was
Straining on you so
...

Secrets, secrets
They're creeping up
Secrets, secrets
They're adding up
...

I am frightened
And hard to admit
That I am scared
That will be all of it
...

I'm hoping for a ring
I'm hoping for a dream
I'm hoping for everything
Or so it would seem
...

Believe that roses will bloom
Around its crusted, frosty bloom
Believe that wings will onward fly
Even if flames should fray its ties
...

I tried and I tried
But I can't say I can
I never could truly
So that is why I ran
...

All eyes on us
We stood out in the crowd
Before we blended in
Now we stand by each other's side proud
...

The strikes are against me
More than you could count
But I don't think it's fair
To just single me out
...

You'd be breaking my bones
If I really had any
As weird as it sounds
I'm just not sorry
...
