The leap

I leaped off a cliff, my arms outstretched 

My friends thought me to be dead.

I glided back up with wings beneath me, 

my face so smug and proud to be me.

The fighting, useless words and sarcasm faded.

They finally understood my secretive stair. 

They had called me a liar.

They realized I was right from the beginning.

"And you thought dragons didn't exist... Ha!"
