DRIFTING


DRIFTIN’

SJENSEN (C)2019

LETTING THE MUSIC

TAKE ME AWAY

DRIFTING

SIFTING THROUGH

THE PAIN

LETTING IT

LEAVE ME

AND REPLACE

IT WITH ENERGY

CALMING

I CLOSE MY EYES

AND DRIFT

SOON I AM

SOARING

ABOVE THE CLOUDS

RIDING ON

THE WINGS

INTO THE THREE MOON

SUNSET

FEATHERS FLOWING

WINDING BLOWING

AGAINST MY FACE

MY HAIR FLOWING OUT

THE AIR CRISP

FOR THE OCEAN

IS BELOW

THE MULTICOLOURS

TWINKLING

SHINING FROM

THE ANGLED LIGHTS

I GRIN

AND LET IT

TAKE ME WHERE

IT MAY

FAR FAR AWAY

FROM HERE

LEAVING A TRAIL

OF FIRE BEHIND

AS IT FLOWS

THE PHOENIX

AND I AM

ALLOWED

TO RELISH IN

THE FLIGHT

WITH IT

SHE CALLS OUT

TO ME

AND I BARELY

HEAR THE VOICE

BECAUSE

I AM SO FAR

AWAY

CALMER NOW

I COME BACK

AND SIT HERE

SIPPING MY TEA

WISHING

ON A SPOT

WHERE WE CAN MEET

AND BE

THERE

WELL WE HAVE

THAT

YET ITS NOT

THE SAME

SAFE DISTANCES

MELLOW OUT

MY HEART

SOON SLEEP

CALLS

AND I WILL

GO BACK

AND TRAVEL MORE

DRIFTING

IN THE INBETWEEN

OF THERE

AND HERE

AND ENJOY EVERY

SECOND GIVEN

CAUSE

THERE IS NO PAIN

THERE

JUST PEACE

UNDER MY COVERS

I LOOK OUT

THE WINDOW

AT THE JET TRAIL

AND SMILE

FOR IT REMINDS

ME OF THE PHOENIX

TRAIL

THE SUN SETS

AND DARKNESS BEGINS

AND THE LIGHTS

ALL START TO SHINE

AS THE MIDNIGHT BLUE

SKY IS FULL

OF CLOUDS NOT

A STAR TO BE SEEN

YET THAT IS OK

FOR I WILL SOON

DRIFT OFF

INTO BLISS

A LITTLE WHILE

TIL MORN

RISES WITH THE SUN

AND START

ANOTHER DAY

WITHIN MY

SILENT

LITTLE

ISLAND

WHERE I AM

ALWAYS FREE

...

WONT YOU

COME

DRIFT WITH ME......
