Flight

Take me away from the Pain today

Let me set it Aside like a dirty rag

Soaked in sorrow, Soiled with suffering

Turn my face to Yours as my eyes Close

Let me hope, let me Dream again

Sleep is ripped from my grasp

So often,

It slips like silken spider’s thread

From my fingers, and flies away laughing

Catch its elusive dandelion feathers for me

That I might Rest

As my mind flies Free

From my imperfections

Stay with me

While I escape

Among the stars
