Learn to Fly

Is it the ending of a journey Or exploration to begin? I'll pack no luggage, bags or boxes For a trip I'll take within It's not a cage door to be open When being out is being in It's a gateway or a portal; A membrane in my skin Let me crawl, let me walk, let me run Let me skin my knees and cry Leave me free of expectation I'm learning how to fly Let me grow, let me jump, let me soar Let me spread my wings and fly Keep me grounded, forever hopeful And always asking "Why?"
