FLY
August 19, 2009
I want to
Fly
Be the bird
Of envy
Skittering across the
Crystal blue sky
Shed everything
That’s holding me back
And reach up and
Join the place I belong
I want to
Look back and laugh
Remember the old days
And turn and leap
Forgetting the life
I’d never wanted to have
Really never even
Deserved
And one day
I will
I will meet my
Aspirations and just
Fly
