Each step to flight you take stuns

your mind with the same question

you've got the spine, the backbone

and the pectoral muscles grabbing

onto   your minimal existence   as if

to hold on to   you    incase you fall

in   your     futile    attempts   to    fly

So    why    were   you not     worthy

of     owning    a     pair    of     wings

even   though    you've   always had

an unquenchable thirst for freedom

even though you tirelessly yearn for

the company of honorable angels

Were   the scales of your mistakes

and your   sins   of fulfilling   whims

a rusting weight of   decapacitation

or     were     you      never    destined

to taste     the chilling alpine winds

or breathe the mist of frozen clouds

Now you've thrown the balance off

of   the    centroid    of    your    body

to walk upon the thin sleet of life

and you hop one step   at   a   time

hoping to take a leap into the sky

and     these     dancing     footsteps

echo in the seven heavens above

and   shake     the      dust      settled

upon the wings of your   guardians

You were never made to fly darling

but to climb the stairway to heaven
