I hide behind my hair
To cover up my shame
People stare at me
Things will never be the same
Always looking down
I do not even smile
Always wearing a frown
I can't remember how to fly
My wings, they're broken
Too tired to even lift me up
I think that I will never
Manage to move on
Three years had passed
And I finally realized
I've been wasting too much time
It's my moment to shine!
I flew into the air once more
I raced with the wind
I laughed and sing
With the birds around me
I have never felt so free
My wings and I soared
I smiled at the thought
Someday, all of you will know!
*~*~*
I composed this the moment I felt like things need to be changed. I shouldn't stay in one corner and just hide from the world! I learned that you will never feel what happiness really is once you’ve got hurt, mad, and any other emotions. Nothing is permanent in this cruel world but CHANGE. I've decided to live life like it was my last second alive. On the “My wings, they're broken / Too tired to even lift me up” line, I was referring to my HEART. On the “I laughed and sing / With the birds around me” line, I was referring to my friends and families who had been there for me 'til the very end.
