Her Wings

the control that gripped her
she could take no more
her soul struggled and fought
she longed for freedom galore

her spirit craved
the sweet taste of freedom
nothing would do
until she had her own kingdom

she was ready to take flight
fly alone this time
her wings were established
on her own could she climb

the tallest mountain
the deepest valley
nothing could stop her
not even the biggest finale

her wings spread far and wide
as she lifted from the ground
she felt the wind beneath her wings
and oh, how she could fly.
