Soar High

 

    spinning movements

 in space and time

trapped  in a cyclone

two forces

in a tug-of-war

 down under

 gravity pulls me

to drink myself

in oblivion

soul drenched in pleasures

calloused wings dropped me down

up above

 the harp plays

cherubs chant

 hymns of hope

the Supreme's love

 raises me up

from the heavens

a glimmer of light 

 beckons

soar high

 never give up

never fly down
