just like me
just like you
she was born with the ability to fly
she did not realize this gift
for there was too much mental subterfuge
she was sifting through
just like me
just like you
her spirit though appearing quite grounded
to those passing by
she lived in a world of whys
and she was well aware that her eyes
were for crying
there was no denying
though she in her own way was quite defiant
about certain things
just like me
just like you
she truly was a fair hearted soul
but she longed for some unknown wholeness
and perhaps she could extricate herself
from the mess
as she saw her world to be
and she more or less
kept all this to her self
as we all do so many times
just like me
just like you
