fall or fly?

[memorylady]

Run as fast as your legs can carry you,
Until your lungs are about to burst.
You have to keep running
As far away from the familiar as possible.

Let the wind wipe the tears from your face,
And the cold air numb your angry heart.
Exhaust all your muscles
Until they reach their straining point.

You'll know when to stop...
With a hard kick from the ground,
Throw your body forward.
Put your hands to your sides.
Close your eyes.
And let go.
