I Gave You Those Wings

I gave you

Those wings

When infancy

Kept you

 

From walking

At all.

I lovingly

Made them

 

To show you

They’d fit you.

I sewed them

Onto you,

 

So we could fly

Together.

We did

For awhile,

 

Until it grew

Much too easy

To just stay

With me.

 

I gave you

Those wings

That you flap

In my face

 

And painfully

Mock me.

Now they

Are yours.

 

Now

You are free.
