Am I Enough?

Am I Enough?

 

Today I didn’t go anywhere

I wallowed in the heat that strangled my home

They never arrived.

Since childhood I promised to rise,
To trace the clouds, to claim the skies.

The birds I cherished, graceful, free,
Now hold a different truth for me.
They fly with no true place to be,
Just motion framed by destiny.

But I, with maps and dreams so grand,
