Hugging me tight and saying goodbye
Next thing I know I'm flying, soaring high
Fearing the height
But loving the sight
Forget being patient for the end of the flight
The sky grows dark now
And I'm miles above
Thinking about the ones I love
I take a deep breath and close my eyes
And the turbulence slowly, reluctantly dies
My ears pop and I can barely hear a thing
I put on my music and listen to it sing
I look to my left this guy is far from sober
And the pilot radios above
That the ride is almost over
The words are keeping me sain
Just 15 more minutes and I'd be off this plane
Sooner not later we finally go down
I smile to myself I do not frown
A sudden wave of relief sweeps over me
And the ride wasn't as bad as I had thought it would be
LOL! I can certainly relate to this, for I have the same fear. A fear of heights and a fear of flights!
Loved your poem ~

A nice story, I'm sure many of us can relate to. I'm taking flying lessons, so my fear is a little different now. take care, V.
your words paint the perfect picture it feels as if i'm almost there with you
