Flight

That feeling again.
A lightheartedness that grows
Establishing roots beneath my toes
Branches shading my head
It overwhelms me
I can’t seem to stop smiling.
Tingly and electric
I could fly if I wanted to
Nothing, no one, could keep me.

That feeling again.
Brand new.
Fresh air invades my lungs.
Refreshed.
Breathe.
I tell myself.
Knowing that feeling leaves quickly
Just as soon as it came, it will leave.

That feeling again.
