Take Flight
Clinging fearfully
Faith in a suitcase
Hope on the runway
Someday in the distance
While time swiftly flies
Windy on the tarmac
Last chance for turning back
The past persistently tapping
A tried and trusted shoulder
Of this cloud cover lover
Hoping to discover
If behind, or in front of
This slow rolling boulder
Is where destiny lies
Squandered opportunities
While contemplating strides
Wretched is the waiting
For which to decide
Stay grounded?
Take flight?
