I reached for the skies
Grabbed my own star
Wanted to make it mine
But it was too far away
What does the journey take
What does adventure seek
What do I need
To reach the other side of the rainbow
My own dreams
My own goals
My own journeys
The greatest that the world has ever known
The moon will dance
The stars will sing
The trees will whisper my name
And the sun will give me praise
All that I need
Is that first step
A smile on my face
Ready to brave the world
What will it take
What will I seek
That great pot of gold
Filled with the riches of this world
The glory and the fame
The accomplishments I've made
I'll keep going back
Back to the end of the rainbow
To fly
To cry
To reach the top
Of the highest mountain
The journey's mine
I will make it mine
Watch me fly
And make the it mine
I'll reach for the skies
Find my own star
I'll make it mine
The brightest the world has ever known
And you'll be there
Right at my side
Prepared to fight
Prepared to find
You'll take my hand
And I'll take yours
We'll brave the world
Let's brave the world
Life will be our rainbow
The journey ours
You my pot of gold
And I yours
This is our journey
These are our trials
We'll be the greatest
The greatest the world has ever known
We'll grab our stars
Hand in hand
We'll light em' up
And watch em' dance
Oh but that's only the beginning
There's so much more
We'll do it all
All the world has ever known
From the highest of mountains
To the deepest of seas
We'll do all it takes
To make this world our own
To master this world
To make it our own
To finally reach the sky
This world we'll defy
Our own strengths
Our own weaknesses
Our own voice
No one will ignore
Yes
That's the journey
The long one
The one called Life
We live and die
But with a dream
We live to live on
In the hearts of those who proceed

The story behind this :
I guess the theme was more or less IDENTITY.
I guess, I was staring up at the roof, wondering about stars. And, at first, it was going to be a personal song. But I decided on poetry. I just wanted to have one thing that belonged to me. MINE. And I realized that this is my life. The only thing in this world that truly belongs to me is me, so I should've taken charge and make myself my own.
Your own self, doesn't that sound great?
Then I realized that I wanted to share my self, not exactly show it off, but that I've made this awesome person, now what? What if, someone else became a part of this awesomeness?
Someone who wants to be their own self with you and be part of your awesomeness.
But then what? What else? Well, you pass on your awesomeness to someone else and start a chain of greatness.
And that's what made this poem.
