Flying High

I leaped so high

my feet left the ground

leaving behind the earth I had known

the place that was now broken

my memories drifted with me

racing ahead into the clouds

My arms reached out

I was flying like a bird

The memories came racing back to me

I fell

lower and lower

until I was back on the ground

I realized

I wasn't flying

I hadn't been found

I was walking

just wandering around

trying to find my place

a place to rest

a place to laugh

a place to love

a place to crash

for now, I'm here

in this empty streets

looking for a place

that will fly with me
