Panic, confusion leaks in
Soaring, escaping through the semi-conscious
As a balloon of the extraordinary floats by
A balloon filled with wondrous dreams
Passionate hopes and seeping with joy
Colors all different, but the same
Spinning, writhing, thrusting
It continues to soar, through the pain,
Fighting the negativity with a smile
