Flight

Flight  (noun randomly generated by Word Generator)

Flight

I stood on the brink of adulthood

Ready to take flight

Or so I thought

I even had a Bible passage to inspire me

That I was taking out of context:

And you shall know the truth

And the truth shall make you free.

Free of adult supervision,

free of their rules and stipulations

free to follow my dreams…

So  I took flight

but I had the wings of Icarus

and flew too close to the sun

and quickly fell to drown in the sea.

There is no place of freedom

life has a structure and form

we must follow.

The only way to be free

is to live within that structure:

enter and follow a flight plan.
