TO FLY FREE
Sitting in my class
Staring out the window
Watching time pass
How it goes so slow
Looking out at the blue sky
Noticing its true beauty
How I would like to fly
As my obligated duty
To soar across a cloud
How good it would feel
I would be so very proud
For that I would kill
To have a feeling of freedom
No one to complain
Oh how would I come
Or how would I explain
To those who don’t understand
The high you could get
From being away from land
Is something never to forget

Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.
