grounded he was
rough
torn at the edges
striving for stars he was
never meant to reach
i'm sky-bound, he'd howl
to anyone that would listen
one day i'll fly free. you'll see.
you'll all see.
i tried to tell him
beneath our pearled skies
that his real power lay in
shucking off his conformity
instead
he shucked off
me.
