Flight (for Donna and the man she loves)
------
It's a faltering step or two,
that you take at the start,
uncertain of your gifts,
you fear you'll lose your heart.
But you remember you're not alone,
that someone is beside you there,
and the warmth of their caress,
wipes away your fears and cares.
You stride forward gingerly,
and slowly spread your wings,
you hope that when you leap,
upward you'll gently swing.
And at the edge your heart sinks,
as you step away from the ledge,
you feel the winds blow,
and you leap out from the edge.
Then you realize that you soar,
high above the clouds of doubt,
you sing with all your strength,
and let your song radiate out.
But it's not just once voice it's two,
and you both fly as if you're one.
Winds gently at your back,
into the bright rising sun.
