soar

You will feel you are about to break
one day
you will bend as your overburdened shoulders
hunch deeper
and the wings that you soared upon
so proudly, will cringe
and you will wonder if
they were meant more for folding
than for flying
and one day
that black cloud will follow you around
and one day those painful
memories will hover near
and you will want to give up,
but don't.
The strength that you need
has been within you all along. 
This is simply the moment
to prove it.
