I Will Soar

#IWillSoar

The sun comes up

The rays shine down

I will soar.

The rain comes down, and the winds will roar

When the storm is over,

I will soar.

Sometimes I stumble and even fall

I won't stay down long.

I might need to cry

But my eye is always on the sky

I'll wipe my tears away once more

I will soar.

I might get knocked down

with my face towards the ground

But deep in my core

I'll know, I will soar.

You can't see the music

but my heart plays the score

I will soar

My heart might get broken

I'll pick up the battle worn pieces
Still beating with the pulse of hope
Maybe never as it was before,
But still, I will soar

You may see only darkness

My spirit knows there's light

My wings may be folded and out of sight

But always ready to take flight

I will soar

You might think I'm nothing

But I know I'm so much more
One day you'll see,

I'm gonna soar.
