I’m not sure where you flew off to when we saw you flying free. I heard it’s a long way off, but worth the walk if you can see. I heard they have a softer bed to welcome you at night. And when you’re woken gently by the sun, you feel you’ll be alright.
I could tremble now just to think I know what it looks like there with the stars below. When the angels sing, is listening allowed?
I get carried away. I get lost in you. I’m in love with everything you say and do. You’re so beautiful!
I heard the view of the sea from there would steal your breath at sunrise to keep your mind away from anything that makes you want to cry. I heard the leaves change color to brilliance in the fall, and that somehow helps you to forget you ever cried at all.
If I concentrate, can I see you there tasting brokenness, smelling every prayer? When the angels dance for you next can I see?
You invite me there into mystery, into everything that could awaken me. It’s so unthinkable… And I get carried away. I get lost in you. I fall in love with everything you say and do. You’re so beautiful!
I hope right now you hear my words travel through the dark. I hope you feel me try to catch on fire and throw me down a spark. I hope you find me spending all to find you in the night, and a window to your beauty opens up and gives me light.
