In Flight
I touch the heavens
they absorb my pain
of the longing that must pass
before I see you again.
I am at peace in the clouds
with their silver linings inside
they will make this time apart
be worth the tears that I’ll cry.
Next time I soar into the sky
I’ll bring this gentle peace to share with you
and in flight will become the words
that mean that our shared dream has come true.
