SteemitPoetryContest #2 - For All I Know, It’s Only a Memory

In an empty park a girl walks by,
With a grey feather in her hand
To nobody she will ever speak,
About nothing she will ever laugh

She stays on that same bench
Away from her kind, away from her journey
She hears a bird singing from a rotten tree
Two stories apart - different pages of life

Descending light sparks hope from a far land
She longs for the feathers, she longs for the song
She longs for the holding hands,
She longs to hold on

This is my entry to the poetry contest #2 by @terrycraft. The current theme is Silence.

This poem was workshopped by the good people at The Writers’ Block. On this poem, @jonknight gave some constructive feedbacks, making the words flow much better. Thanks a million!
