Soul's Flight

There are songs
That touch the soul,
Songs that wrench the heart
From my chest,
Leaves me bleeding
From an unseen wound

My parched soul
Drink up the melody,
My ravished spirit
Gnawing on the words,
And acid tears freed
Course down my cheeks

And I float
Upon the tides
of lilting melody;
My spirit unfolding,
Spreading wings
To finally fly...
