Why I, Cannot Fly?
Why have I, who was made to fly, given away control of my wings,
To those who restrict and have never seen
the sky…
Oh why, have I, traded wings of liberty for costly chains which
Hinder me—that deceive, take away and wither my Light.
In the private idleness and darkness of my night—
I find myself wondering why,
Despite all the “goods” I have labored for, I am just a peasant
Without my simple wings
I have mindlessly exchanged what was sacred and unique about me,
For a common bag of tricks—that though packed as it is,
It only fills me up with emptiness at the end, and then…
I wonder why even when
Reaching for a goal
That is most likely not even my own,
It is never quiet enough…
Yet again, I choose to join the race,
In pursue of my golden star sticker,
Which surely promises to bring me fulfillment this time
For my job well done
Meanwhile, I am only trading freedom, happiness, Love and peace,
For a good credit, money and…you fill in the blank with ease.
I wonder why I, who only ever wanted to fly to the horizon and beyond.
And I, whose only plight was to touch the sky again…
Plays the same game of pretend—to be working for anything else than to claim back my power to fly.
For we all understand that without wings,
A bird would surely die.
So why I, who was made to fly just the same,
Should compromise life for golden chains.
Even though they shine and glitter,
The question still remains…
Why I, cannot fly?

what i meant is its easier to do things that serve thy-self, in which case its hard to gain thy wings haha. but once you get into the cycle of doing and being love then your good to go and it comes very naturally easy. also can be hard in an odd duality kinda world.
Love for sure conquers all.
"I think this is what I needed actually, I have also given up my wings a while ago and am trying to get them back, which is very fuckin hard, but WILL happen."
It is the most EASY you can do.... I't is the only you should do....
LOVE is EASY....
Just LOVE
And you get back your wings in one week
TRY
I LOVE You ALL

I think this is what I needed actually, I have also given up my wings a while ago and am trying to get them back, which is very fuckin hard, but WILL happen. therefor we all win cuz we are all one and we are all the same in this tedious monotonous game.
Love and Light your way you awesome soul.
