Air
I feel clear as the air
As I stand and stare
Past my troubles and into the sky
Feeling pulled by
A plane overhead,
As it tosses the clouds
And stops the ground-bound crowds
Free to roam
For everywhere is home
Against my skin it shyly
Brushes by me
Before descending
Into my mouth,
To live again my oxygen
