I LOVE TO FLT, DO YOU? So why can't we?

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?

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 f***** 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.
