Free like the wind
To dance, twirl, smile, love
Free from that sadness, darkness
buried in my heart
Free to fly away
from reality into
sparkling, glittering, happiness
Free to swim
with others or myself
smiling glistening droplets
Falling into a ripple
surrounding my cool body
Faces, loving whole hearted
Friends to the family to my one
My savior, holding my hand
all along the way
bright and curious
squinting for the world is tinted
in the most beautiful way possible
colors dripping, gliding off
the edge of eternity
to be captured by my one
