by Nia Passmore
Bear me gently from the place,
Carry me away on the harmony of your transcendent wing.
I will keep its vibrant rhythm
and find my way back here again.
Take the kiss of my sweet song,
Wrap me up in our melody—the one we wrote.
I will part from you for now
But find my way back home again.
