I Am.....

I am like a feather flying in the wind.

give me a hand and see where I reach.

No! don't crush me in your palms

give me air to rise up

and see how I attain wings

and flutter high above

No! don't capture me in a cage

give me the key to unlock

and see me fly with birds

beyond the horizon.

No! don't cut my wings

just lift me up

and look at me

with head held high

No! don't burn me with your looks

I search for the love in your eyes.

don't hurt me with your tongue

my heart craves the honey words.

I am like a feather flying in the wind

give me a hand and see where I reach.
