Come Fly With Me . . .

I know you, 
I know your story.
You’re deferent,
So am I.

Come fly with me,
Run away,
They don’t want us,
Yet they’ll keep chase.

Use your broken wings angel,
Fly away.
They’re still chasing,
Can you hear them howl?

Almost there,
Just keep going.
Were almost save,
Just keep going.

Keep faith,
We’ll always have each other,
Keep faith,
And fly away. 

 In the air were invincible,
But they’ll keep coming.
We’ll never be save,
Our world will come to an end.

Come fly with me,
We’ll fly away.
Leave this world behind,
Come fly with me, 

	 . . . one last time.

Go!

Go,
they’re coming,
get away,
Go!

Just go,
don’t worry what’ll happen.
Don’t even look back,
Go.

I’ll be okay,
just leave.
I’ll keep ’em busy,
Go.

I love you,
I know you’ll do this for me,
that’s why I’m doing this for you,
Go.

Just go please,
they’ll catch you if you don’t,
do this for me,
Go. . .

. . . and remember I love you.

Take My Hand

Take my hand,
Take it now,
You can trust me,
I’m like you.

Don’t be scared,
You’re save now,
They can’t hurt you anymore,
I want to help.

I want to help,
Ease the pain,
‘coz I know it won’t go away,
Take my hand.

Take my hand,
We’ll fly away,
We’ll start over,
Away from here.

We’re deferent,
You and I,
Take my hand,
We’ll fly away.

Unnamed Emotion

I am Sad,
But you’ll never know.
My judgment bad.
My tears never show.

I die inside,
my tears never show.
Many a times I have lied,
but you’ll never know.

I lie broken on my bed,
crying for what you have said.
Your words don’t hurt me anymore,
but they did indeed leave me sore.

Who are you to judge?
“I am not perfect!”
I have said, yet you keep a grudge.
Your anger has not set.

Send me away!
My friends do not care.
“Stay, don’t go!” they will not say.
Nor would I stay, I would not dare.

I am Sad,
Happy has gone.
I’m left mad.
And visibly torn.

Poem For a Runaway

run away,
runaway,
they won’t find you,
run away.

take to the sky,
they won’t follow,
they can’t fly,
fly away.

don’t look back,
to the troubles you left,
just look forward,
to the freedom ahead.

don’t do it alone,
there are others,
find them,
runaways.

they’re in hiding,
all around,
you can’t see them,
but I can.

join me,
I’m one of them.
follow me,
join my flock.

we’ll keep you save,
you’re one of us.
don’t look back,
freedoms ahead.

Flying

The ultimate thrill,
Up and down,
Up and under,
The clouds my companions.

I play in the sky,
Big twirling loops,
The wide blue sky comforts me,
My salvation.

In the sky I’m free,
In the sky I’m me,
The sky’s my playground,
I’m glad I found.

My endless inspiration,
Clouds of perspiration,
O how I wish I’ll never leave,
And lose this place.

I spread my wings out wide,
And fly in the endless blue,
I love it here,
Here I’m free to be me.

Leave Earths bonds behind,
Gravity can’t rule me no more,
The ultimate thrill,
Leave Earth behind.
