Wings attached lift thrust and flap
Muscle ache and yearn under my skin and with that I screech
Wings attached lift thrust and flap
My heart pounds against its cage and with that I screech
Wings attached lift thrust and flap
My brain throbs against its cranium and with that I screech
Wings attached heave propel and flutter.
Wings attached that can not hold on any longer.
So I fall.
And I fall.
And I fall even lower.
I hit the ground with a “Snap!”—One of my legs now in half.
As it tries to bend and heal I can\'t find myself to fly.
and yet with that I chirp
muscles set under my skin; I chirp
my heart twitches against my chest; I chirp
my mind vibrates upon my skull; I chirp
connected wings now lay on the ground
I smile now, without having to make a sound.
