Never To Be Heard

you stood there in the shadow
watched without a word
saw where I was heading
thought my vision blurred
wondering and waiting
still without a sound
shifting in the darkness
never to be heard

you thought that I was making
the biggest mistake of all
shaking your head in wonder
ready to catch my fall
and just when you were thinking
that this would be the day
I spread my wings discovering
that I could fly away
