I'm always being told
that life is an adventure
this is the peak of my life
nothing is holding me back
except a long wounded wing.
It's strange to notice
that a bird will sit
with a cage door
flung wide open
quietly on its perch
singing to itself
too scared to leave
everything its ever known
to go where its always
wanted to go.
One day,
one day,
I promise I'll leave.
In the middle of the night
to who knows where.
For my adventure to begin
just as soon
as I remember
how to fly.
