Fly Away
May 1, 2014
Be a bird of flight every night when you feel alone.
Be a bird of flight every night when your heart has no home.
Be a bird of flight every night when you feel there is no hope.
Be a bird of flight every night when the pressure makes you choke.
When your wings are clipped, you will not soar,
but that never stopped our species before.
When your wings are clipped, they will recover.
And soon again you will be able to hover.
And after that, again you will fly.
Because you are a bird who deserves to touch the sky.
