Reach

reaching for the outer world
- longing for some sunshine
and the utter freedom
in ability to move
wherever her mind says: go!

reaching for her role model
- moving, oh so quickly!
across the starry sky,
leading the way
to a promised land;
there will be no more walls –

reaching for those promises
- unseen, concealed
like a seed, planted in the very core
of her inner being;
longing for the free run,
longing for the wind beneath her wings –
