How to Fly

I've finally risen
Broken free
From myself
No insecurities
Will ever
Hold me down
No boy
Will ever
Shape my person
The hot breath
Of failure
Has disapeared
From my neck
The bubble of success
Finally bursting forth
These fervent flaps
Of naked arms
Finally amounted
To feathered wings
Capable of so much

    I like it It's really uplifting, makes you think that maybe success isn't quite so far out of reach.

    There weren't really any line breaks, but maybe you intended that to happen?

    Thanks for entering and good luck!
