"Why do you weep? What are these tears upon your face? Soon you will see all of your fears will pass away. Safe in my arms, you're only sleeping..." ~Into the West, LotR

frustration
something within reach
yet unattainable
held tantalizingly close
then jerked cruelly away
stepping down to the floor
to have it yanked out from beneath
biting into chocolate-covered tofu
reaching the surface
and inhaling water
taking off from a cliff
wings sprouting from your arms
weighed down with lead feathers
