The wanted flight not given

by Spirit   Jun 30, 2007


Curse these grounded limbs
that bind me to the earth
curse these mortal bonds
that leave me with out worth

curse this fear, this horrible fear
that keeps me rooted here
curse this night this perfect night
which holds stars so bright and clear

curse the moon, that shines so bold
that no one can reach out and touch
curse the fact that I can not fly
for it's a skill I want so much

curse the birds that sleep so high
it's as if they're in a sky of sea
curse the life I'll never have
because I'm happy being me

curse my envious self
that wants the moon and stars
curse the ones who are lucky enough
for liking who they are

    Ah, one more thing. You tend to use the word, 'so,' a lot.
