I closed my eyes
And saw me fly
Out of their clutches
Soaring way up high

Through the clouds
And deep blue sky
I stretched my wings
And saw me fly

A caged bird freed
Chains unchained
A parallel world
No limits restrained

Past the atmosphere
Swirling round and round
I saw me fly
But my feet were ground.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
