Reborn

Whimsical whistling, heard in the breeze. 

Fairy wings twinkling, too tiny to be seen. 

A world of imagination at my fingertips. 

My heart aches to think of the lives I’ve missed.

All the people and things I could’ve been. 

In my current life, I am a normal girl. 

In my past life, a mermaid. 

I love being in water, floating, and swimming.  

No worries in the world.

In my future life, a cat. 

Sunbathing by the window, warm and peaceful.

I love being warm and hate the cold.

Who knows what I was and what I can possibly become.

Excitement runs through my veins at the unknown. 

To be someone or something other than myself. 

Someone who doesn’t get depressed, stressed, or anxious.

To be someone who can fly away. 

To be something out of a fantasy book. 

To be something fantastical and interesting. 

To experience another reality.

To escape my current one.

To be reborn into something,

Magical.

I've always dreamed of living different lives, extraordinary ones. This piece just stems from my imagination of being something or someone else.
