Above me birds fly away
But below me my feet stay
Where is my rainbow today?
Walking through the clouds
Filling up my head with doubts
While the sky remains blue
I make a wish upon the stars
Though I can't see where they are
I hope tomorrow it comes true
Humming softly in my head
The words of long ago once said
The pretty speak of a lullaby
Singing of a special place
Where true happiness is made
And your spirits live so high
One time in a dream
This land came to be
Somewhere in far up air
Now I believe that where it is
Is with the ones that live
In daydreams that keep them there
But if I dare to dream it's so
Then maybe I'll be blessed to go
Tomorrow to my rainbow

Oh, wow... I really love this poem, haha. Just in case you were wondering or interested in knowing, though... I actually did get the... inspiration, I guess, for this one from the lyrics of the classic song Somewhere Over the Rainbow. If you look closely enough, you'll see I matched some of the rhymes from the actually song and actually took certain images from it as well. I also was kind of singing the song in my head the whole time I wrote this, too... and all night afterwards, so... hope you enjoy it! <3
