Tried to Fly

poetryismusic

I tried to fly, to see if I could.

And so I leaped; I spread my wings and I flew.

But quickly I realized that I was not above the clouds, but plunging towards the earth.

I was falling. I smiled, because it did not matter anymore.

So I held out my hands and I fell, gracefully.

I closed my eyes and exhaled for the last time.

I tried to fly, to see if I could.

And I did.
