Swing Me Home

Clouds and trees
Animals and the bees
High up in the air
Swinging so freely
I see it all 
The landscapes
The moon and stars 
Are all surrounding me

Legs dangling mid air
Breeze blowing 
Hair flowing
My hearts a singing with flair
All while I’m swinging mid air

I’m swinging high in the sky
Close to the stars
But not quite there

The smile on my face
I cannot contain 
Why would I anyways
It’s my happy place 

It feels like home
And it’s swinging me closer 
To the moon and stars above
To the very places I love.

I've really been enjoying your story your characters and storytelling are fantastic. Honestly, I think it would work incredibly well as a manga or webtoon and could help you reach an even bigger audience. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist, and I'd love to help bring your story to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il: [email protected] inst@ akiraa_artly
