Poem - Shining Bright

This poem expresses my desire to put the past behind me and step confidently into the future. In fact, I seem to be expressing confidence that it WILL happen. I think that is called HOPE.

SHINING BRIGHT

Look, I'm a bird
Flying high in the sky!!
I'm FREE as the wind,
The clouds pass me by.
My feathers are light
And troubles are few,
The sky is gray and still it's blue.

Look,I'm a boat
Sailing the seas!
Over the tides,
Like a dolphin, I'm free.
Through the channels,
Into the bay,
Trouble just get out of my way.

'Cause my life is short and you're no friend
You're nothing but trouble and you can't come in.
No sense knocking at my door,
I've had enough, I won't take anymore.

I've taken wings and flown away
And finally I've found a better day.
Each hour is better than the last
AND YOU'RE JUST AN EXPERIENCE FROM THE PAST.

Give me a dime, and I'll sail to Spain
Tomorrow, I'll come back again.
And if you're there, you'll have to leave
Because I haven't time to sit and grieve.

See, I'm a star, shining my light
Among thousands lost, I'm glowing bright.
And one thing I know
There ain't no doubt
I'll shine bright 'till I'm all shined out!!

So look out trouble, get out of my way!
I've finally found a better day.
Life is short and you're no friend.
No sense knocking, you can't come in.

I created this blog as a way to organize my thoughts and feelings. While I recognize that my feelings have room to grow in a different direction, I am not keeping this blog as a place to seek advice. I have a therapist who is helping me to grow at a pace that is comfortable for me. Encouragement is welcome. Advice is not!
