Longing to leave this place...But no where to run...A life filled with uncertanties...I need somewhere to run

Escape this and just fly...That's it, I want to fly...Living amongst the birds and learning their praises...With no reason why

Just because they're happy...Because they're free...Not crying over love or life...Just living free

I wish I could soar with them...Flying above the clouds...Watching as the sun sets...Resting under the stars

But why...Why can't I do it...Why can't I spread my wings and fly?

I loved it. Interesting structure and very well chosen words. Also a very popular theme to create art with :)
Its no surprise that people want to spread their wings and fly. Unfortunately the increasing demands in life keep our wings holstered and our feet on the ground. Its sad that the only reason humanity continues to strive is because we are tied down. We all have the innate responsibility to think ahead for the preservation of human kind. If we all flew when we wanted to the world would collapse. But like all sad endings, the world has to continue to spin.
But that is not to say we can't have fun on the way :)

Great job, it means a lot if it can get me to rant on like that hahaha.

Lol Thank you very much! I really appreciate the comment, and how true!

But that's exactly what we do as writers and why we are so fortunate... every time we create a story or poem, we spread our wings and fly!!!!! Nice work showing much promise. Keep up the good work, soaring like an eagle! Happy writing and reading.....Jerry
