My Wings
Another poem I wrote for my Poetry Project...
I wish I could fly,
up into the sky,
soaring high above,
all of life's pains.
Bad grades, homework, detention,
grief, death, heartbreak,
friend fights, family fights, stress,
cuts, scrapes, and bruises,
inside and out,
tears, pain, and so much more.
But then I'd be missing,
all of life's joys.
Hope, love, happiness,
friends, family, pets,
laughter, kisses, hugs,
blue skies on a summer day,
hot chocolate on a winter one,
the gorgeous sunsets, the crisp autumn days,
so much pain, so much joy.
Maybe for now I'm better off,
with two feet on the ground.
There's always tomorrow, to get my wings.
