“Oh, how I wish…”

Each day I wake to watch them fly,
The birds, I mean, up in the sky,
I watch them float up in the clouds,
Their wings spread wide, floating so proud.

Oh, how I wish I could wake one day,
Jump out of my bed and fly away,
Up into the skies, I would go,
Away from all this grief & sorrow

You may sit and wonder why,
Why I would want to be up high,
But if you felt the way I do,
Then you would want to do this too.

For the time being I’ll stay down here,
The reason for this is not yet clear,
But the day will come, of this I’m sure,
When to fly away, I’ll want no more.


~~ Things can only get better…
