You're flying
over the city of your dreams,
like a butterfly.
It's the night.
You see all the lights
coming from the buildings.
You see a lot of people;
happy people...sad people.
You're trying to understand
their story
by watching them.
You can feel
what they're feeling
and you'd like to help the sad,
but also would like to be
with the happy ones.
It starts to rain.
Your clothes are getting
all soaked up.
But the rain is warm,
so you don't mind
being wet.
In the far
you see a little girl.
You are flying to her.
As closer you get
you're wondering
why she looks so familiar.
The rain stops
and you are almost at her.
The girl laughs,
but you can see
that she also has tears of sorrow
on her cheeks.
As you're landing in front of her,
you see why you know her.
She is you
and you remember,
why you were flying.
not really a poem...more like a story. But it was on my mind and needed to get out.
