One day I'll patch up

My wings and fly.

Go up and away

To explore new skies.



One day my heart

Will speak my own name,

So I can smile

Day after day.



One Day my mind

will be loud and clear,

And sing out loud

For all to hear.



Today,

I write down my hopes and fears.

Praying they'll help me,

Get through these years.
