I have a little poem for you today, which I wrote in my head one day outside on my bike looking at a passing airplane. I´ve always wanted to write a poem like this, because I really get emotional when I see airplanes… That´s just me… Anyways, I always procrastinated and never knew how to start and how to write until that moment when it struck me. I wrote it down immediately and found my pace of writing. This is also very personal. One of my most personal posts…
Here is my second official poem (you can find my first one here). Enjoy!
When I see airplanes in the sky
I think about
what I think about is freedom,
I think about space,
I think about feelings,
I think about grace
When I watch airplanes cross the night sky
I feel envy,
I feel hope,
I feel anticipation,
I feel close,
close to my heart,
my heart so thirsty for adventure,
hungry for new
I want to fly away,
take that plane,
into the blue
I want to feel the height,
see the world,
leave all fights,
and not be heard
I want to feel the freedom
not remain the same
I want tomorrow to be full of happiness
not like yesterday
I want to be me
for once
full of energy and free
I want to be the one I left behind
left at the place so wonderful
a place so safe
a place so many words can´t describe
But I got onto that plane and left everything behind
now it´s trapped in my heart and it can´t hide
It screams in me to let it out
it screams in me to
just take that plane
