Always reaching
Heaven bound
Leave my feet
Back on the ground
Flights of fancy
In the sky
Hug the Earth
And breathe a sigh
Which carries me
Throughout the day
Until the amber
Comes again
I am transported
To other worlds
To other dreams
To other insights
I learn my bounds
Then extend them
Beyond what I’d known
Or even dreamed possible
The Rain
The Sun
The Cold
The Heat
In the many battles of opposites
Nothing lasts forever
Except balance
Here
and
There
Holdover from a time
Of neon
Air-con
And movin’ on
In the intricate darkness
I find beauty
I find insight
Without a subtle understanding
Of the complexity of darkness
I will never see the light truly
I begin to understand
Why both the light and the dark
Are necessary
.
Though when they do
They’re not the same
But when they’re gone
They’re lost forever
