I wish I were a bird

To fly towards you

Across the world

Across the oceans

Across the skies.

No matter where

I would meet you,

Wrap you in my wings

My feathers caressing

Your whole being,

Comforting you

Healing past wounds

Easing your grief.

And I would elevate our souls

Embraced in my soft plumes

Entangled in the clouds

Building a lighter future

Made of old bricks

Shaped anew.
