My Happy Place
The Upside Down can be an unhappy place for some
I find happiness in ways unique to some
Upside in a handstand where I belong
I point my toes to the endless sky
My muscles strenthening, for every time I handstand
My fears and doubts disintigrate into the earth
Gymnastics is in my heart
burning brightly no matter how long apart
the gymnast in me remains untouched
Life's obstacles, rugged mountains and stiffened trees
Leave no marks on my resilient heart
I can bounce and turn, flip. and fly
Despite how many years that go by
Or where life takes me
I don't mind being upside down
The feeling I get when the wind brushes my body
I stand on my bare hands unwavered by the wind
I am a gymnast who will always feel good in a handstand.
