Never Hide Your Wings

Never
hide your wings

For without them
you would not have
flown above your past

Never
dim your
creative sunshine

For without them
you wouldn’t
have proved yourself

Never
dumb your
intuitive fascinations

For without them
you’d be another drone
in that emperor’s garage

Never
succumb to the critics
or give-in to your doubters

For without them
your enthusiasm
wouldn’t excite

And your passion
wouldn’t
have shone through

For the price
of brilliance and creativity
is rooted in let-downs
and continuous build-ups

So spread
your wings
unashamed my dear

Ignite
your creative flow
unapologetically

Unleash
your hidden passions

Unshackle
your unique genius

Emancipate
your fettered hands

Reveal
your uncommon
brightly shimmering gems

For these
are your
ascendancy auxiliaries

And the grown strength
you’ve worthily become

So never,
never
hide your beautiful
and gorgeously unique armed wings

Not now
Not tomorrow

Keep
growing your wings

Keep
spreading them wide

Keep
flapping them
in soaring motion

For they will
keep you buoyant

And nourish you
when the dark times come.

Never hide
your wings my friend.

Not today.
Not tomorrow.

Just. Spread. Them. Wide.
