Wind Beneath My Wings

Poems About Me

I'm high above the clouds
I'm soaring
And I sink into the feeling
But sometimes I sink so far
That I can't come back up
And I start to feel so alone
I can't always fight it
And the tears pour down like rain
Where do I go?
I feel the clouds hovering above
I can feel the suffocation
But I run through the meadow of flowers
And I dance through the hundreds of trees
I can feel the power of the storm
Making its way over to me
But I look away
And then all I see is a beautiful sunrise
This gives me hope
Sometimes I wonder why I fall
But when I do, it all comes crashing down
And I realize so much
But the wind brushes over me
And I remember that I can fly
I can soar higher than this storm
I can make it through the toughest of disasters
I let the wind take me farther
Farther than I've ever gone
Because with the wind beneath my wings
I control where I go
No one can take me higher
I will fight for my own destiny
And the tears are washed away in the breeze
I have no reason to cry, nothing to fear
Because I know I have an escape out of here

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I used the connection to weather to write about life. This is about how we all suffer and can overcome any obstacle we run into. This can be looked at in many different views but I look at it as this: The storm is the problems and suffering we all go through every now and then, the beautiful weather is the times when we feel at our best and when we feel so confident, and last but not least the wind is the hope that gets us to our goals and dreams and our happiness when we're forced to face the storm once again.
