At the moment of exhale
Unaware the air had grown stale
I was a white washed wasp

Maybe because daddy bent my mind

Specs of me left behind as a trace
Missing my crew before I even depart
Hard to not feel a crack in my heart
Wheels up as whisked into the sky

Fly In a Lift

I often hear voices and an occasional shout
Then I feel a breeze, but I’m nervous to try
