like a dragon, diving


the night has escaped you
you have forgotton who you are
who you wanted to be 
and where you wanted to go

lean in
this is a secret

i can fly 
the wind gusts speak to me softly in forgotten alleyways
i have lifted spirits
i know how to peel a child from the gutter 
to deliver him the field
i know how to build bridges from seemingly unneeded relationships, those necessary for growth
"i believe in flying dragons and dancing bears"
i know who first said that
an earlier version of who you are now

if you run and look only toward the horizon, you will be flying 
there 
is true peace, 
hope
life 
fear
everything large and small
everything real

there is you
