Embrace the View
May 12, 2021
The bitter gust of wind swept past my face
Piercing my ears along with it
I looked at the ethereal view in front of me
The skyline of the city that had been there the whole time
Nobody cared to pay attention to it
All different sizes, different shapes, different colors
As I stepped closer I started falling
Closing my eyes I let the bitter wind pick me up again
Immersed in the wonders of the world
I hadn’t noticed I was not falling anymore
In fact, I had been soaring the entire time
Soaring through the world as if we were all at peace

Hi! I'm Chaeli and I am 14 years old. I was inspired by the song Normal Girl by SZA to write this poem. I realized that we all can't be the same and it's sad that we have to look the same to be considered normal. So I wrote this poem and I hope you enjoy!
