Kite
©Wendell Kimbrough, 2008

If you needed to live without me,
Then I think I could let you go
Like a kite in that great big open sky
Of a land I do not know
Though you’ve held me like a blanket
Your hands have been open wide
I have felt the freedom to brush against
The heart behind your eyes

You don’t know what I need
I can’t tell what it takes to set you free
Is it me? Is it me? Is it me?

There are so many bars and hinges
Inside my little frame
That could close on you so quickly
And start acting like a cage
When a bird like you is singing
And learning how to fly
It would kill me if I held you
And I kept you from great heights

You don’t know what I need
I can’t tell what it takes to set you free
Is it me? Is it me? Could it be me?
