Take Heart, and Take Flight

Leave it behind

Calling in whispers

Awaken from the dead sleep

Warm breath let's you feel it.

Burning it all at half mast

Slow burns the house lights

We aren't waiting

Pour out the dust

Lungs inflate

Limbs crack, rattle, and roll

Stand firm

Eyes open for the last time

Closure warms in waves

Tides still

Hands unfold

Naked in spirit we are washed clean

The night floats on where thieves roam

Flashes of light

Have heart, and take flight

'To me' is the call of the sky

Open and unafraid

Joy saturates the dance ensues

Fall to pieces 

Rise from your grave

Rise from your grave

Rise and take flight.

Rise
