*...and I never did learn to fly
always trying to take flight
came close a time or two,
could never quite get off the ground
wings were clipped as a fledgling
stories written on caged walls
echoed, yet there were no lyrics to sing
without a voice on a prayer
plummeted to abysm's bottomless pit
till I could feel no more
there in the dark stillness lie the secret
rhythm and music filled the air
Found the poetry within my soul
realized the wings were in my heart
all along, I was meant to dance*
