Hope

Falling from heaven, arms spread wide
Trying to grab onto something, to stop this flight
Flaying back and forth
Turning around and around
Thinking of all the things
That happened in my life

Screaming for someone to help
But no one seems to hear
Looking for someone to catch me
Knowing, the end is near

Crying for a miracle, that everyone talks about
But realizing, all that's around
Is the air and the clouds
Breathing in and out, trying to calm myself down
Accepting what is going to happen
As I descend rapidly to the ground

As I get closer and closer
I look in the back of my mind
Knowing, this is what life is all about
You live and you learn
You may stumble or fall
But as long as you live
The end isn't as grim as it may sound

As I close my eyes but to my surprise
The ground, which I was approaching in such hast
Was not in sight
A revelation presented itself in a dream
I jumped out of bed, and exclaimed in delight

"A new day"
This is the miracle I cried for...
This dream reminds me
Falling isn't a bad thing
Not getting up is

I have to pick myself up and fight for what is rightfully mine
Accepting how things are, is not always the case
For if I do, I will end up watching my life fleeing me by...
