This was inspired by my untalented contest writeup by . Kindly patiently read through. This is my first poem, so I am open to corrections.
LIMITLESS
Here stood a bird with a broken wing
Not caged but yet couldn't leap
Could it be its weakness trying to take a swing
Or yet its imaginations hindering a sweep?
All I wanted was to fly
No external factor, at least none i know of
Internally I am a self sly
Or could i truly be a rip off?
Picture source
The bird wouldn't be swayed
It flapped the unbroken wing and fell
I am not going to get played
So I rose and who can tell?
Morning to dusk I tried
Evening to dawn I believed
Feeling so torn and dried
I at last achieved!

Pls how is my first attempt at poetry?? Dear poets in the house, kindly come and point out my errors. Thanks.
