Her dreams floated off with the balloon off into the airs. But with it also floated all of her fears, misgivings, and failed adventures .Everyone's expectations. She laid and watched it float high into the sky.
She imagined it could float forever. Even though she knew eventually it would pop, she still wished it wouldn't. That it would carry everything up to the stars. Then, perhaps, those that may be would know that she is tired of all this work. All the work of meeting everyone else's standards for her, except her own.
Watching that balloon she was ready for fly away from everything that had tied her down before.
She was free... Flying away like a bright blue balloon on the grey morose sky, no longer attached to the ground but always reminded by the black string tail.
