Have You Ever?

Have you ever felt,

So scared deep inside,

Like there's nowhere left

For you to hide?

Have you ever seen,

A star shoot across the sky,

Like it's only ever been,

Up above that high.

Have you ever touched

A bird flying in the air,

Like freedom untouched,

Soaring without a care.

Have you ever heard,

The rain as it's falling down,

Like it much preferred,

The embrace of a human town.

Have you ever smelt,

The scent of sunshine in your nose

Like it would wish to melt,

Into a perfect rose.

Impossible things to do,

But nothing's more possible than,

Living your dream through,

Even though it wasn't the plan.
