She Reaches Higher
Reaching for the stars
Feet on the ground
She walks on solid earth
Expanding, growing, rising
She knows when it is time
She has learnt all she can for this cycle
It is time to move on
Time to wake up
Time to learn something new
Expanding, growing, rising
What is next?
New horizons
New experiences
New journeys to be made
New friends to get to know
Expanding, growing, rising
Sometimes it is hard to take that next step
Leaving comfort behind
Opening herself up
Taking risks
Making opportunities
Unfamiliar territory
Expanding, growing, rising
But reach she must
If she is to fill her vessel
Overflow
Fulfil her destiny
Utilise her potential
Feel good
Expanding, growing, rising
Leaving some behind
Leading the way for others
Meeting up with others who cross her path
Sometimes for a moment
Sometimes for a lifetime
It is what it is
Expanding, growing, rising
With her heart in her mouth
She gulps down the courage she needs
Trusting, working, learning again
Expanding her cup to fit more in
Expanding her heart to see even more
Expanding, growing, rising
As She Reaches Higher
She stretches her own limitations
She pioneers new ground
Making the path she clears
Easier for those who are next to reach
Higher
