Together, We Fly
2024, February 22
Dear heavens and paradise
May thou bless us with this song
As we glide above this land
Soaring above the sea of cold air beneath
Highing upon the particles of what makes us human
Bursting through our shells of protection and into the sky
Shattering our own beliefs and yet completing the knowledge of this world
Together, we fly
Into the eternal night
Where the moons lay around our heads and speak into our ears
Onto the woven fabric of time and space
Where darkness is peace
Where the clouds are no longer white but seem to be colored explosives
Where the stars were born and diminished into nothing but black
Where the untold, unforeseen and unexpectations become the truth
From where our eyes could see to what we believed
From the scrapped metals of artificial beings to the holy books of the Gospel
From what we delivered into this place to what could remain
Together we fly
With faith held as our last straw
Whether life or death
We take our flight
Together we fly
Into the vast galaxy
Together we fly
Carrying all of humanity
Together we fly
As we are also made of stardust
And together we fly
As this universe completes us as one
May thou be with us
May we be blessed with kindness in our souls
Together, may we fly
Amen.
