Give me wings

Please give me wings. 

Teach me the sky. 

A bird in it's cage can learn how to fly.

It claws at my heart. 

These bars hold me in. 

I'll give you my love Because there's nothing left to give.

I opened my eyes to see grian standing above me 

His eyes were wide and filled with grief 

"Grian?" 

My voice sounded far away and cold 

Despite my constant muttering 

He smiled at me and opened his mouth but before he could speak he sunk into my body and disappeared

A heartbroken screamed filled the air   

That was the last straw I gave up

Days blurred into weeks to months, months to a year 

The leaves never stopped falling 

They covered my body and blurred out my vision 

How long had it been again? 

Was it a year? Two? More? 

It didn't matter I would never leave here I was stuck 

My body had started to sink into the ground or maybe the ground had risen it didn't matter 

Nothing mattered 

I closed my eyes 

For a very long time

I snapped my eyes open 

"MUM!"

"MUM!" 

"mum?" 

"dad?"

"Hello anyone?"

I was back in the village the world had frozen 

The flames engulfed the forest but didn't move 

The soldiers marched but never moved 

Bullets stopped left floating in the air

People ran, people screamed but no noise came out 

No one moved 

I looked around 

There holding hands and hugging someone were someone's parents

Tears fell from their faces 

A child was tugging at their shirts
