A Quest for takeoff

The bird looks around, flaps its wings
She is excited, because she'll flow with the wind.
She looks around and sees her friends take off,
She sees them flapping, the wings up and down
She is aware that she'll be joining while they are around

She opens up her wings, beautiful as they look
In the sunshine, they look bright and gay
She flaps hard, excited about her flight
She knows that this is the beginning of a new life

She goes up slowly, closing slowly as they say
Chirps happily, flapping away
Suddenly she stops, her wings still flapping up and down
She looks all around,confused look and a frown
Not knowing what has gone wrong.

She realizes a chain on her leg
A weight tied around, pulling her down
She struggles, she screams for someone to unlock the chain
She finds no one , no one to free her again

She looks to the sky, sees her friends moving afar
She watches them go, tears flooding her eyes.
She tries to call, her voice gives away
She knows its futile, no one to share her pain anyway

Alone she stands, alone she waits
She thinks how to get past this situation ............



* not feeling motivated to complete it today guys, sometime later
