Artist Unknown |
I once was an eagle
Way up above I flew
Until I didn’t.
Captured.
Tethered to an invisible arm,
Attached to an invisible body.
Allowed to fly no more.
I have not forgotten the magnificent view,
The air beneath my wings,
The wind in my face.
Or how it felt to swoop from great heights
to the valleys below
And then up again.
Now caged I have only my dreams to remind me of
The glorious days when I glided the heavens
And scoured the lands and waters below.
They say it is for my own good.
They say my wings are broken.
I don’t believe them.
For in my heart, I soar,
Like the eagle I am.
