Tied together with some string <br />This is such an average thing <br />Some balloons start to leave <br />As their strings begin to weave <br /> <br />All balloons in the air <br />Everyone with a pair <br />Except for a white <br />One that didn't win the fight <br /> <br />It looks so apathetic <br />So small that its pathetic <br />Its floating really fast <br />Into the sky at last <br /> <br />Everything went dead <br />As the balloon started to shred <br />It was taken by an airplane <br />Thats when the balloon lost its pain <br /> <br />It was a rejection <br />It couldnt make connection <br />I swear it cried <br />A second before it died<br /><br />Laura Kelly<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/balloon-2/
