Up above the clouds I sit
Longing for the day
When I runaway
No one to talk to
Nothing to do
I sit and wait

The day has come
For me to run
My heart beating like a drum
As I stand to jump
No courage
No strength
I sit back down
Longing for the day
When I runaway

All hope was gone
I was drowning
The swirling currents of thoughts
Dragging me down
Swept under the churning waves
Not able to resurface
Deeper and deeper I sunk
Into the abyss of darkness
Down like an anchor
Unable to breathe
Until
I see the waves part
A shining ray of light
Passing through
Illuminating the way
I swim
As fast as I can
Reaching for the surface
Till I break through
Up above
the world
Bright as can be
I no longer sink
But float
