Somehow I knew loving you
Could only be a big mistake
My spirit flew, then I knew
There would be heartbreak
We were twenty then
You were so far away
Following your own plan
Expecting me to stay
Craving independence
You needed stability
Hiding from the know.edge
That I needed more liberty
You desired not a lover
Not a partner nor a friend
Just a launch pad for another
Flight, declining to descend
I watched you leap for distance
Catch the thermals, swoop and glide
Unprotected, trusting to chance
Wanting no one at your side
Altitude shall make you shiver
Up there oxygen grows thin
tiring from each endeavor
As you force another grin
Obviously in pain
Deliberately blind
Refusing refueling again
False freedom consumed your mind
For every action, a reaction
Your flying days a lost dream
Grounded and losing traction
Your mind and body now a team
