Taking Flight

shadows shifting, thoughts, ideas
in the darkness all our fears
dissolve into the quiet light
shining always through the night

through the times when we're alone
by ourselves when no one's home
in solitude remembering
that light keeps shining from within

swirling fields of energy
all around in which to be
travelers in and out of time
elevated by this rhyme

relaxing mind to float away
to rise above our egos' play
to become celestial
beings rising from a fall...

gravity lets us slowly slip
from the power of its grip
as always shining inner light
embraces us while taking flight
