You fly
then you also know
the taste of the fall
The terror
the lack of control
spiraling down on broken wings
When your soul is bound
and the tears spring
uncalled for your sorrow
For the pain of falling
Is all the greater when one knows
freedom's flight
It is a pain and sorrow
so much it could never be borne
Yet it must be borne
Because without the strength
to withstand the fears of falling
once can never
never ever ever again
Fly

In responce to :iconmatt-taylor21:'s reply to [link]
Which was:



"i do fly; this is certain.
sometimes vivid;
somtimes in shadow;
but; fly i do.

the wind passing by me;
has a sound of its own.
sometimes i am up;
sometimes i am down;
sometimes i am all turned around.

i hear the leaves in the trees;
singing their song.
i see colors so clear;
an artist would cheer.

sun so bright;
moon so light.
i see so clear;
i wonder; if, i am here.

to me; this is all true.
but; i do not speak for you.
but; fly i do."

I hate flying... Very nice poem, I like it a lot.
:iconcanticum:
XD you hate flying?
really?

anyway, glad you like the poem!
:iconn-g-e:
Yes, I loathe it with a passion.
:iconcanticum:
Well, I don't like airplanes, but I've got nothing against the idea of flying without one. Sounds like fun ^^
:iconlamortnoire:
I love how you responded to the other poems, for one, the poems you wrote are brilliant and two, it's an interesting idea to do that,
