Gossamer

Gossamer wings
Sprang from her shoulders
She said her goodbye
And took to the sky
A quick, icy grip took hold
Under the ship and told
All that you wanted to know
The call of the wild that you
Knew as a child, and through-
Out your whole life
You never thought twice
What’s under your skin is where
You really begin, I say
I know what’s bringing you down
