You are Here to Fly

You are here to fly- but the sky doesn't accept you.

Having arms instead of feathers, I cry beside you.

Fear controls me, but not you, your soul soars high.

Eventually you can touch the sky.

You are here to fly- but fly alone, the ocean makes my soul rust.

I run to you, Poseidon, for my life to you I entrust.

You are here to fly- fly along side the monsters,

I can think of no other honor.

Search the depths, there only the monsters go.

I long to join them in the deep blue, but my name isn't on the manifesto.

You are here to fly- reach out your featherless arms and hold my hand.

Plunge deep, but I must stay on land.
