I want to become a bird
with hope my goal
as it lies so far away.
If I am able to face what
I see before me right now
I won't have to fear being hurt
or what tomorrow will bring!
I want to fly away
high atop this breeze.
Towards the oceans of my dreams.
On these wings called courage.
Become a bird and hang onto
what I feel as look down.
Let's not be beaten by
the reality of passing days.
