What if I had been born with wings?

What if I could fly away?

I would fly away from the place that had held me down for so long.

The way the wings would feel would cause me to feel such peace.

The way the wings would carry me through any weather, any storm.

I would fly so high that I could touch the stars and feel the heat of the sun.

I would then let go of my wing and come back crashing down to the earth.

Dropping down through the clouds, through the water, and through to the deepest depths of the sea.

And then all I could feel was the water coursing through my lungs filling them up until there was no air left.
