The kids leave the park

when the black demonia boots run up

long black hair,

they swear I'll never cut it,

they're not wrong.

It's all I have left.

Between my shredded innocence

And my disspearing magic trick happiness.

I hold on to the chains of the wooden swing

pumping back and forth

The wind guiding my body up and away

a swift kick to mother and father 

with each movement.

A release sent as a punch to my enemies.

Locked in depression,

drawn to sad things,

but days on the swings are different.

Soaring,

high throughout the sky.

All the kids who said I never could

stand in awe

watch with curiosity.

Wind cuts slits into my back

wings unfold and off I go.

Mother, father,

say goodbye, it's my time to fly.
