Black Balloon Poem by reina Lorenzo

Little mind hangin’, thinking
Self pity, trying hard to be strong
Oh, there’s a wonderful place she have never seen,
Disneyland! !

“there’s a black balloon flyin’ from the sky
I wanna know how it makes you fly
Cuz I wanna fly
As high as you are”
She screamed.

Black balloon simply fell down
A tear fell from her eyes
Oh! How hard she swept away
(whisperin’)
“this couldn’t be”


oh there’s a black balloon flyin’ from the sky
i wanna know how it makes you fly
cuz shi wanna fly
as high as you are
but,
she scream no more…
