Freedom.

As we lay back on the beach watching the sun go

down, we notice birds traveling towards the sunset,

 

"where are they going?"

my cousin asked me.

 

"Anywhere they want to,

they're free." I say.

 

As they soar over head,

I daydream about what

it would be like to have

wings.

 

To be free.

 

That's all I could ever ask for, and soon I will have it.
