How to fly

First off you go get on your roof

then you walk over to the edge 

Finally you bend your knees and jump..

Your body will just seem to float and you are basically weightless as you move towards the clouds and next thing you know you are flying through the sky with no worries, no one to judge you, no one to tell you what to do because YOU are flying..
You look down and you're high above the rest of the world and you think you can fly forever, but you cant. You see some of your friends below and you go to wave but they shoot something at you. You cant quit see what it is but it is coming at you fast. You start to fall flaring your arms as your helpless body plummets towards the earth. You quickly close your eyes and brace for impact, but it does not come.

You open your eyes and you are now on the ground looking up at the beautiful blue sky. You smile and try to get up, but your body seems to weigh a million pounds. You look at your arms and your legs and you realize that you are being held down..

People you know teachers, coaches, and some friends see you and start to come over.. you start to relax but those so called friends start to nail you to the ground with words. "your not good enough." "you can't do that!" "your not different." "why even try you will never get it!" "you are terrible" "you suck" You scream "get the heck off of me!!" But they don't, and then they hit that last word into your chest and then they are gone...

Day soon becomes night and you still lay there with those words nailed to your chest. All you can think is Why.. why.. why  did they shoot you down and why did they nail you to the ground! You then realize that you let them shoot you down. And you cant live like this... So you start to tell yourself that you are worth it and you can do it!

You notice that you can now start to move so you continue to tell yourself you can do it and you believe yourself. You are now inches above the ground and you are climbing.. 

You shout for joy and you realize that no one can tell you what you are or what you can do. 

You can do anything! 

YOU CAN FLY....
