Stilled Flight

Silhouette framed by the outstretched window
The calling of unbarred freedom
Bare feet pressed against the cooling sill

Heels lift at the beckoning breeze
Chin skyward at the hope filled reddening heavens

A mind lost
A soul stolen


Delusory confidence laced appealment to soar
Compelled by a
Momentary
Greater authority

Fingertips let go

The leap of manic faith
The fall to pieces unrealized forever
