Fly away

Crow.

The sky

it calls for me

the sky

it wants me to return to it

but I can't 

my wings are broken

I fly no more

my wings are broken

because of you

you pull off 

all my feathers

keeping me 

trapped in this 

Hell

my wings are broken

I fly no more

I can't 

escape 

I can't 

escape 

my wings are broken 

I fly no more

I can't return to my 

home

the sky

it misses me

and I miss it

My wings are broken

I fly no more

I can't 

Fly away

I can't 

soar 

out of my this

Hell

but maybe

just maybe

I can learn to 

Fly 

once again

    Great write

    This sort of stream-of-consciousness writing reminds me of journaling. I've written something eerily similar to this, then proceeded to rip it out of my journal and tear it into little bits that I then scattered where the sun don't shine. That's because writing such as this is potent- one of the best ways to communicate raw emotion. Especially if it is read very fast, to simulate the feelings often held by the writer. It's the easiest and the hardest form of writing, in a couple ways. Hella interesting. Good job.

    Incidentally, have you heard the Frank Sinatra song "Come fly with me"? It would prove a good counterpart to this poem, I think... If you haven't, try listening to it.

    One day your wings will grow back and you will be flying high once more.
