GROOM

I have surpassed the necessity of flight

It was hiding in me

It was nestled there

(So quietly)

Just below the skin

A perfect pair of wings

Waiting to spring forth

(Mentally)

And now I take flight with my soul

It's weightless

And it goes where it goes

My mind is the guide

And it lets my spirit float

I can rise up to the top

Or relax into the flow

I can breathe deep

(or not)

Hold my breath till I am whole

The air around me

Pulls back when I blow through

Then enfolds me once again

(Embracing me)

Just like air should do

Reach my hand up to the sky

And I can pull down the moon

It sees it's light

Here in my eyes

It's own reflection makes it swoon

I let it rise back to the sky

Like a child's lost balloon

But before it beats

It's quick retreat

It spends a second there to loom

To know my eyes

And what it's like

To be down here

(In my room)

But when she rises back on high

She's Luna – my wife

And I - her groom
