Fly Away

The stress of everyday life
Makes me want to fly away
Somewhere far
Not just from work

But from heartache and war
It's hectic enough my life
And in being who I am
Typing away

Sometimes I feel like I'm overwhelmed
Of course I love family and career
When it comes to my writing
Believe me I have no fear

Each one I hold dear
Fly away, fly away
Temporarily I say
I tell myself someday
Getting away from it all
Is what I continutely pray
