The Sparrow, Within Me
Who am I,Who do I want to be. My mind wonders freely. There was a time in my life where I use to wonder and be free. Free from life and difficulties. A chance that I once had to begin freshly. I sometimes wonder, did I have a life before, could I awaken what I once was, To feel the air on my face as I flew high above the ground an into the clouds above. A little sparrow escaping love. Could it possibly be, that the one tiny sparrow in me, could have so much freedom and still have a chance to be the best I could be. The Sparrow within,me.
A little sparrow that would never sleep, I would fly as far as I could go,never looking back escaping life's reality an everything that kept me captured. A life of never being free,this is not the life for me. I want to explore and take in everything. I want to see the beautiful blue skies,I want to feel the warmth of the sun on my wings. Enjoying this world that is pure beauty. Blue waters and the crisp blue sea. I would never have to worry about all the troubles at home that stresses me. The Sparrow within,me.
Now it is time to face the facts,the little sparrow that is in me,will never be free again,As I come back and face reality my journey has ended quickly. I have a home, and responsibilities. to take care of my own and watch them grow and be free. A choice that I have made in another world that I have committed to, to raise and take care of my family. To watch my little sparrows grow and understand their life and responsibilities, to help them over come any obsticals that will get in their way. As I watch them grow and spread thier wings to full lenghth,but if I could have that chance again to be that Sparrow within,me I would not hesitate to take flight and soar high in the beautiful blue sky that I once had. As I wonder and fly free in a world that is just made for me.
