The Floating Honeybee


she flies and she floats

buzzing around, completing everything everyone asks of her.

she flies and she floats

never asking any questions, or retaliating to their wishes.

she flies and she floats

waiting for the day that she walks on two legs.

she flies and she floats

waiting for the day that she becomes her own beekeeper.

she flies and she floats

knowing that one day she will complete what she asks of herself.
