Learning To Fly

god muscles up

raw emotions bristle

neurons synapse and spark

she hesitates

learning to fly


the hair stands up

on the back of my

neck I shiver

remember to breath

learning to fly


her statue is as hard

as marble but she’s

as soft as vulerability

and so a woman

she’s learning to fly


with every day she

reinvents her future

she knows what she wants

she doesn’t hesitate

she’s learning to fly
