Let Me Fly

Let me fly
Amongst my birds -
Onyx against rainbow skies
Far above menial words

I crave the wind
Against my wings -
Free from sin
Devoid of strings

Release me to the heavens;
I'll watch those below,
But a confession
Will always be in tow:

I belong to the sky -
To the moon and sun -
My goddess softly sighs
For me to come home

The clouds call to me,
Their shapes alluring
Their rain cleansing,
Their love curing.

Let me fly
Set me free
I beg of you
On bruised knees.
