I love looking out over the sea
I dislike how far it is from me

I have pictures filled with several faces
I want to be back at those places

My friends say I'm a future successor, and not to let my dreams die
My family says I'm a person with hopes far too high.

One day I will show everyone just what I'm made of
I will never look anywhere but above

My favorite foods include chicken and other birds
I will never eat my own words

I feel sad when I start to fail
I feel happy when I begin to sail

I feel safe when I'm in my own little world
I feel scared when it starts to be unfurled
