Learning to Defy Gravity
Rules grab my shoulders
They pull me back
Decide what I lack
Don't let me escape
Finally free to explore
To let my mind grow
To learn more than I know
I won't let them control me back anymore
Ready to become something bigger
So scared of what is to come
Ready to march to the beat of my drum
Gravity can't even hold me down
I can defy
Those that won't let go
Things that hold me low
I will define myself
This poem is about:
Me
My family
My community
My country
Our world
