I remember being twelve, and telling a friend I wanted to fly.
She shrugged her shoulders and said,
"Don't we all?"
Years later, I jumped, like we all do
Thinking he'd catch me,
Like he's supposed to do.
And I fell
Like I always do.
Lying on the ground,
I watched the world above me
With cracked lips and a bleeding heart.
"Don't we all."
