Poetry for people who could use a little kindness

Joy

I feel it creeping in
but it’s not darkness, it’s light
for once, it’s not threatening me
I don’t have to put up a fight

I don’t have to be afraid anymore
I don’t have to hide
I can let it all out
to explode and shine

Calling out to the world
belting it, screaming it
I’m so high on joy
I must be dreaming it

If I kicked off from the earth
I could spread my wings
soar into the sky
and listen to the clouds sing

Up here with the sun
in the beautiful blue sky
I’m unchained, I’m free
free to dance, free to fly

I invite you, please
share this moment with me
Just take my hand
and come fly away with me

We’ll soar above our fears
it’ll be glorious, it’ll be grand
for a moment, let’s leave your pain behind
all you have to do is take my hand
