Fly

Spreading her wings,

She wants to fly.

Only she finds herself to be,

To scared to try.

 

For her wings have been bent,

All of her time spent.

 

Oh how she wished to soar,

Throughout the night sky.

She had tried once before.

 

Maybe this time she could.

And maybe this time she would.

 

Spreading her wings,

She wants to fly.

And this time,

She finally finds,

It was worth the try.

 

This time,

She found that she can fly.

Not only fly,

But soar through the night sky.
