As I sit here writing this
I gaze out the window by my side
I see my reflection staring in the abyss
Wishing I could just fly away or glide

While i stare, I feel myself shirking as time goes by
As I hope that I won’t become an ant
Wishing maybe some way I could fly
Even though part of me thinks that I can’t

My dream to fly will never ever end
As my soul begins to grow
And as I look down, I see talons and feathers
And instead of a scream, tweets are all I can send

As I panic, stumbling all around
I calm down and find
That I have wings! Of course! I can now overcome my mound!
As I skip outside so many thoughts filled my mind

I jump off my little ledge
And open up my wings to be set free
I no longer have to be on edge,
To finally become who I was meant to be

As I soar, my breath is taken away
The wind flowing through my feathers instead of my hair
But now my flight in progress, I begin to dread the end of this day
Will I every fly again it the only thought that has all my care

I begin to land, slowly but surely,
I replay the memories I made today
So I began to sing with glee
The day I became a bird and flew my troubles away
