I want to run away with dancing fairies & go on an intriguing adventure,

I want to go to that place where time stands still

& everything happens in one glorious moment,

I want to be free of this flesh that weighs me down

so I can fly high into the sky with the birds

& swim deep into the sea with the fish.

Oh mortal body why do you confine me so?

Oh soul that is my essence when will you carry me away?

It is not death that I seek, 

no, not at all,

it is unbridled life,

life that rises in my imagination,

I need only learn to take flight

& I am certain I will soar untethered by gravity,

I will reach the heights & depths of my destiny,

I will find the shining treasure

waiting to be opened by my fluttering hands,

I will arrive at that place of twirling freedom where all of life dances its own creation.
