Learning to Fly - kylie abecca

An open mind, a guarded wall,

Do not allow emotions to fall,

That bright smile to hide all the pain,

Only cry whilst in the rain,

Say the right words, but don't let them in,

Be sure you're alone to face the demons within,

Allow yourself time, be true to you,

Don't press on when you know you're through,

It may take a while, it won't happen today,

But soon you will see, there's a better way,

Trust in yourself, don't fear your reflection,

Don't be afraid to try a new direction,

Happiness is not about hiding the past,

It's accepting today and making it last,

You should not fear who you have become,

Have pride in yourself for all you have done,

Stand tall and be proud to be who you are,

Release your fears and brighten your star.
