Escape

My wings are tied shut.

I can't move.

I want to fly like a plane, but my system isn't ready.

OPEN UP, I scream.

Nothing happens.

I guess I am not meant to fly way.

I am still grounded.

Sounds like you are ready to break away which reminds me of that song by Kelly Clarkson. Great write - JH
