Tomorrow I Will Fly

took a short break from my novel to bring you yet another meaningful and emotional poem.

For too long
I've watched time, fly by
Am I losing my mind, I look to the sky

I want believe
But I know, it's all just a lie
With no hope or faith, left only with the tears in my eyes

I struggle on
Even though sometimes, I just want to die
I think about my life, and all I can do is cry

If I could
I would ask god, why?
But instead all I can do, is try

Hope one day
I will grow wings, and learn to fly
And watch the world, as I soar high
