    Wings
    So ridiculously desperate to fall
    I forgot
    I probably don't have wings
    and I couldn't fake them
    because I would want to be close to the sun

    So ridiculously desperate to fall
    now I wonder
    if I ever needed wings
    because the bird's flight
    comes with a price

    And should I choose to walk
    Would you find me among the crowds?

    And should I choose to fly
    Would you search for me in the clouds?

    The last two stanzas are just breathtaking. I have really enjoyed this and I am saving it into my favorites. Thank you for sharing something so lovely. :)

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.
