my wing clipped to abandon my fly
choking my voice to squeeze loud cry
captivating my persona with shades of fear
even though my eyes shedding not a drop of tear.
homo sapiens lineage within me still linger
thwarting bondage all -nowhere feel of despair
wings anew whirling wind promised to facilitate
entire restrictions blown nervous fast to dissipate
this life a vowed mission awaits it’s accomplishment
in open blue sky per free will fly sans deterrent.
