In pursuit

My life as I know it
Has taken an unexpected turn
The air that I breathe
Tasting the horizons
Laid out and spread before me
A shift in the winds beneath my wings
Decreasing my altitude
Coming down from my cloud

Why!!!
Why!!!, why!!!
Does this has to be in my sky
Sun drops down fast
Rises in someone else's eyes

Why!!!
Why!!!, why!!!
Can't it be in mine

feeling overwhelmed
The self in gratification
My world caving in on me
No one to cry to but why should I
Nor a place upon this earth to call home

Then a swift cool breeze sweeps in
Eyes toward the lead sky
With a crooked smile and determination upon my face
Scratch my atmosphere
Streaks behind my wings, supersonic
retrieving the sun back to where it belongs
