Could I fly away

I awoken with a free day to see
relaxed, then ate breakfast; was required by me
buttered grilled Kippers, crusty bread on the side
sat to think of pretty words that almost rhymed

the frightened thought of me there, sitting all alone
in that moment life began to change, forever
I thought we would spend our life being together
I drove to the beachy head, climbed on the rocks
the moment arrived for me to, fly like a kite
arms spread out wide, upward push into the night 
it was then that I felt the fright, that I just, might
crash landing face down as my body hit the ground 
a bloody nose and an anxious frown
the realisation that after a ten foot dive -
- I would still be around.
