When I was younger, I blew bubbles.
And one day I got trapped inside.
Then started to float away from my family
as it took me for a ride.
I stared up at the shining sun
that didn't hurt my eyes.
and bounced across the top of a lake
giving the fish a giant surprise.
then once again I was lifted up high
singing to the birds to make them smile.
Deciding that it wouldn't be so bad
to fly up here for a while.
So for years I traveled within that bubble
as it carried me all around
and I swer people watched me enviously
for they were trapped upon the ground.
Until one day I floated far
all the way to Egypt where I met a boy
We didn't speak the same language
but we spoke with pictures and a talking toy.
One day he showed me a picture
of us both flying away.
So I dragged him within my bubble
and ran with the day.
I stayed with this boy until
we both grew old
Slowly creating our own language
and laughing at stories we told
Until one day he passed away
leaving me all alone
and I wished for nothing more
than to just go home.
And I just kept getting older
as I floated in my bubble across the map.
And died within it
only to awaken from my nap.
