Enthusiasm is what i found as i soar,
Soaring to the heavens and gliding above the earth.
Floating above the worries of clouds,
and landing on the never reaching doubts.
Everything said and done, but never mine.
If it provides familiarity, it's a bird, not I.
As I am strangled by the ropes of life,
Clung by the chains of hope and sighs.
Where I am nothing but a chick,
In comparison with the world where I live.
I don't have the feathers of confidence,
Nor wings of liberty and carelessness.
As all I have are the limbs, unrecoverable
To the depths of what has been foresaw.
I don't have the beak of biting justice,
Nor the talons in grappling success.
All I have are the parts of me, just that
The parts that hold all thy limitations.
Unlike the bird of liberation, soaring the paths,
I alone stuck in the neverending trees
That covers the sight of success,
and a hindrance on flapping my way.
Not a bird, but a man wanting the life of a bird.
