she chose to walk alone
though others wondered why
refused to look b4 her
kept eyes cast upward towards the sky
she didn't have companions
no need for earthly things
only wanted freedom
from what she felt were puppet strings
she longed to be a bird hat she might dance alone
felt jealous of the steam that made the air it's only home
she longed to be a bird tha she might fly away
pitied every blade for planted they would stay
some say she wished to hard
some say she wished to long
but we awoke one autum day to find that she was gone
the trees they say stood witness the sky refused to tell
but someone who had seen it said the stroy played out well
she spread her arms out wide breathed in the break of dawn
she just let go of all she held and
she was gone
