All i want is to be free
the restriction is slowly killing me
i am a bird, lying in a nest
but among these twigs, im not at my best
if i could jus get the courage to fly
i know that i could reach the sky
the only thing that keeps me here
is that haunting, unforgiving fear
the fear of failure, to lose it all
that if i jump, i will only fall
so i will sharpen my claws and stretch my wings,
i know that i have to risk everything
im at the edge and im looking down
i just hope i fly and do not drown

Yeah - Those things are weird but I think they make sense somehow over time. I was talking to this guy at a place where I do some volunteer work today and he was trying to describe how difficult it is to sort of stay the course, and I was trying to tell him how important it was when you were suppose to zig to zag instead. I don't think he really got what I meant though.

its not sad. i think thru our entire lives we are trying to spread our wings. sometimes jus for a small jump, sometimes for a leap..
no shame in finding the right words to express how you feel
its stil crazy how there are so many parallels between our writings....

I was about 35 when I wrote that. I suppose it is pretty lame to be that age and still not have your wings but maybe that was what I was really writing about.

Now that I think of it you are a Libra, (air sign) and I am a Virgo (earth sign) In your poem you are already aloft and want to stay that way, while I am grounded and want to know what it is like to soar.

Yeah isn't that? I wrote that one over ten years ago but when I read your poem it sounded way to familiar to not share it with you. What do you suppose that means though?

Are we related?
HOPE
How is it that,
These wings,
Though they move,
Serve no purpose?
Where the sky, I
Belong
From the ground
I sing my song
Verse after verse
I rehearse,
My philosophy
The sky, the home
Belongs
My genus
But left alone
With no haven
On high
Facing fate
I hesitate…….
Yet survive
By evasion,
Camouflage
To be the same
Yet too
Different
(I lack the words)
A greater gift,
Cruel or kind?
Offer hope
This flightless bird
And someday
Perhaps I,
Will arise
