7Author's Note: I honestly wish that I could fly. I just wrote this about that feeling you get when you want something so badly you don't understand why you can't have it.
Too BlueThe sky is too blue, too perfect
Too tempting
The clouds are too white, too soft,
Too comforting
If only I did not feel like this
If only the sky were more obtainable.
I can swim so why can't I fly?
The air could be a lake
That I would willingly drown in
Reach up to the sun
And feel its warmth
I wish I could be closer.
Even the night tempts me
Its stars beacons in the blackness
The wind, lifting me up
Making me cold
Making me complete
If only I could be a bird
Not confined to earth
Free to roam both land and sky
Free to glide among clouds and stars
If only I could be a bird
Who wishes they were a fish instead
