she sat in the field
watching the birds flying by
though she never understood
why the clouds made her cry
filled her heart with emotions
that took her away
like the breeze over the ocean
on a warm summer day
she'd close her eyes tightly
take a deep breath and sigh
she wondered, if trying
could her hopes make her fly
then she could soar in the clouds
with those birds in the sky
floating high above the ground
telling her sorrows goodbye
and understand their connection
with her feet in the wind
never knowing rejection
the zephyr, as her friend
then she opens them slowly
to her fears greatest calamity
she will always and only
be a captive to gravity
