Flying so high
Feet can’t touch the ground
Hoping not to crash
As I gaze dreamily all around
The sky ignites
Turning to fire
But it’s too late to look back
As the wind carries me higher and higher
The light is blinding
Scolding my flesh
This skin that binds me
Starts to fall away
My soul’s refreshed
I forget everything
And just for a moment
I feel free
But just like everything else
It all comes back to me
Losing my breath
I plunge towards the ground
Secretly hoping for death
My heart slows down
This is a story of a girl
Who thought her heart was mending
Her soul, she thought, was free
And, maybe,it was
But her life was surely ending
