Her Eyes Were The Color of The Sky
Sometimes it takes distance to drown out the why
She was happy...
But nothing like she had ever felt before
Her sadness was limited
As the excitement of life was even more
The sights, the scenery... it captured her heart
No more abuse or hateful voices to tear her apart
So many miles were traveled to get her to a better place
A life that felt meaningful
Not that of waste
She left behind so many that she daily would miss
Yet, she knew the sacrifices would be worth the bliss
The days and nights of silence and the dreaded unknown
Were slowly washing away with each saltly wave
As the kiss of the sun on her glowing skin
Was all that she could see
Her mind, heart, and soul were filled with endless possibility
You could see it in her smile
Her presence was loud and proud
With the reflection of the sky consuming her eyes
Her dreams were no longer just shapes formed in the clouds
With each forceful push and pull by the ocean
Her body was covered from head to toe with sand
It was at that very moment...
She knew she was exactly where she was meant to land!
