Blissfully Alone

As i fly across the serene blue sky,

I feel the wind blowing hard on my face,

I feel hollow and light from within.

My heart soars and my wings lift up.

Though i sail alone, i feel blessed;

The wind roars, i feel i'm in heaven;

I roam wildly assuming there's no end.

Little did i know then, things are bound to end.

Before i realized i was in the heart of a storm.

I knew i was falling into danger.

I desperately tried to fly away from it,

I tried hard to protect myself;

How do i fight nature,

How do i fight the all-encompassing, all-knowing God.

In the endless rain, i sailed on,

I thought nothing about my destination;

I didnt know where I was headed,

I closed my eyes, trusted my heart and flew with the rain.

Strangely my heart seemed to know the route to safety,

I opened my eyes, and saw the most spectacular rainbow,

I felt blessed to be alive to see it,

As drops of rain still drip from my feathers,

I knew i had conquered something greater than death.

I had conquered a part of myself,

My happiness knew no bounds.

Today i was a free bird, free to be myself,

I let go off all bondage, i felt lighter than ever
My heart tells me, everything is bound to change..

If heaven be on Earth, it did be here and now.
