We wish to give our mind its wings,
A type of mental Pegasus;
But mind's a fragile thing, at best -
An organ slight and tenuous

The arrows coming from the world,
They wound us places we don't know;
We hide our wings so timidly
And so don't fly where we would go

But courage is thing we need
To overcome our troubles here:
To fly to where we need to be
We must be free

And persevere
