Fly With Me

Fly with me into the embrace of the sky,

Let us escape the heaviness of mundane living

Watching the world fade into pinpoints below us

Ascending to heights far above society’s glare.

Let me take your hand in mine,

And while we are floating through cloud-streaked skies

Let us listen softly to the inner pull to be transparent

Knowing, as we know, there is healing in the unleashing

Of deepest pains, of buried hopes, of hidden shame.

Let me see you as you are, dear soul,

Without the added layers of propriety and stoicism

Here where it is safe to be heard without judgment

Cared for without any prescribed conditions,

Up close to the stars where all is quiet and still

Let me be a safe haven

Let your breaking heart be filled.
