I wish I could fly
March 3, 2020
I wish I could fly, up in the air so high.
If I could fly, I would fly at night. Up in the air I would go, just to watch the world down below. But where would I go? If I could fly, would I fly fast or very slow? Would I fly high or very low? I would fly to the stars, that shine so bright? With wind blowing through my hair so very lite, no more doctors looking at me telling me all will be alright. no more pain I feel all the time, I wouldn't be in the hospital day and night, I would tell my mom please don't cry, everything will be alright, no more cancer it all went away, I could go far away from this place, away from the hurt I feel everyday, I would go see my brother, and play like we use to play, no more sickness and more more pain, I would fly far far away, to the moon I would go, is it made of cheese, I would now really know, because that's what it looks like, from way down below, if I could fly where would I go, the ocean I would like to see, where I would finely be free, of sickness and disease, no more tears in my parents eyes, they would no longer need to cry, they would never need to worry, becouse I will be all right, if only I could fly so very high, with the stars in the sky.
Cancer is a terrible thing, I have many family and friends that passed away from cancer.
This is for the families that are suffering so much.
This is for you Dad
