Clipped Wings Cannot Fly
November 17, 2014
Inside me are worlds yet discovered
A landscape of dreams
Surreal, whimsical, colorful
Inside me are spun-candy wishes
Sweeter than sugar
Lighter than air
Inside me is yearning
To leave the past behind
Discover myself in places I’ve not seen before
Inside me is a voice
Screaming to be heard
Silenced by vocal chords
That don’t seem to work.
