Oh wind, take me away

With your light fingertips,

To another place where I can stay;

Where you release me from life's grips.


I close my eyes, but still I see

The world's journeys, you always make.

Your journeys, so wild and free;

My breath, with those you take.


Into my room you flow, late at night,

Stories, you whisper in my ear.

A kind voice tells me about love and fight;

So gently, about hope and fear.


My tears, you take as you go along;

Telling me: Be happy and stay strong

Personally, I don't think this is one of my best poems but it is the first one that I wrote after I moved to another country. So the move itself didn't affect me in it self. I knew the language and the culture so it wasn't a new experience at the beginning.
