We lived in clouds and looked down on the past
Flying recklessly from first names to first time
but recently landed on our last kiss
Life’s winds blew away the house we planned to build
And with no place for them to nest
What would be the point of hatchlings
Clipped wings can’t fly straight
So for a while I lost sight of my goals and flew into some bad habits
Afraid of human interaction I hid even when one approached with perceived good intentions
I used to soar and trust my instincts but how could I have been so wrong about us
Instead of take off, we took down
And our hearts carry the burden
Healing takes time but being stagnant makes one easy prey
Loneliness and advices from friends became my daily meal
And it wasn’t long before I forgot how to fly
Chose to keep my feelings grounded
And now as I relearn to love
I shed off the feathers of pave way for my heart to reach greater heights
Deeper than the ocean can reach
