Take Flight

• Artist: Heller Krieger
• Description: It pretty much speaks for itself, I wrote this as a tribute to anybody who has a friend that drags them down, but they want to be there as a friend for that person-so they can finally both fly free.

I am a bird.

Feathers light as can be,
because I am so carefree.

Soaring through the air,
This feeling not so rare.

Diving fast,
having a blast.

Pulling out of the dive,
feeling so alive.

My friend is a bird.

Feathers heavy with weight,
so full of hate.

Struggling to fly,
as I pass them by.

Diving fast,
just to ignore the past.

Pulling out of the dive,
barely alive.

Yet what can I do as a friend,
but help them around the bend?

Give them a shove,
while showing them love.

I want to freely fly,
before I die.

However I went them with me,
both of us riding the wind, free.

great poem!

Maybe I didn't make the message clear, I am not trying to display pity. I am trying to show how friends stick with each other no matter what. but thank you treawolf

pity isnt friendship...but the poem is good.
