Did you know I like to dance?
You do not, I’m sure.
For how can a person who can’t even walk
dream of something bolder?
But I love how my muscles breathe
and how my soul flows
when I spread my arms and
let myself go.
I like to let my arms become the limbs of a willow,
let my legs become the wings of a bird,
let my body become the stream flowing towards a river,
let my soul be taken to the free sea
Life has placed me into a small glass
barred from the outside ocean that promises freedom.
I could only watch through the transparent veil
while my flesh bound me to the ground.
But one day I’ll fly, I know it
I feel it in my blood.
One day the glass will shatter
and I’ll dissolve into bubbles
unchained from pain.
