Flying

by Parvati - Gemini

If you don’t know where to find me
In the azure sky you will see
A lost girl swirling all around
Hoping she won’t crash to the ground
Her energy comes only from a surge of love
That propels her, makes her soar, up high above
Aove the little houses, over the trees
And over the rough water of the seas
She’ll be painting pictures in the sun filled sky
With the clouds she floats on way up high
And she’ll be there, soaring, on a beautiful day
But the girl eventually, will have to float down
And the smile on her ugly face will turn to a frown
And tears of sadness she’ll rain from her eyes
Because she longs to go back into the wide blue skies
And now, on the ground, unhappiness overwhelms
Her, crying there, sinking into the realms
Of her imagination that can take her anywhere
And she only needs someone to help take her there

Reason for writing:

    I often feel like this is true, I have to "fly", meaning escape reality, and when I get back into the real world, it comes as a shock to me because it's hard to accept.
