Give Me The Wings

The fluids are slushing through my veins, 

Creeping through my blood, through my thoughts, 

Through each word I speak. 

And I am grateful because it is the fuel that gives me the ability 

To open my eyes without sleeping for a 

Bit 

Too 

Long. 

 

I want to breathe the air you claim for me 

I want to cry into your shoulders now 

To claim the gift you give me 

I want to fly, 

Higher and higher and soar just 

A little bit higher, 

So give me a chance to build some wings,  

Give me a chance to build the doors, 

Give me a chance to light up the room.

So give me the chance. 

I fly and soar through the seas 

With the lifting of vaccines 

Churning and twisting against 

Diseased beings. 

Give me the chance to not become the

percentage of the new outbreak.
