rara avis


I wish to break the chains that hold me back
With each link clinking, send me cold
Shivering whispers reminding me of why.

I wish to run off the cliff just ahead of me
With magical wings unsheathing themselves,
Just in time to catch the gale in my feathers.

As I hope, to God, that I can fly, grasping the air
With renewed joy, fueling and pushing me further,
Further into the freedom I’ve been searching for.
