From the Ashes

Underneath the starlit sky
Locked in thought, afraid that any moment
The atmosphere will be broken
and I'll be lost to lonely once again.
Singing along to all those songs
The ones that remind me of love lost
The memories fading with the sound
of your voice, like an angel,
piercing through the melancholy fog.
In this moment I'm reborn,
renewed, filled with life
rising from the ashes of a lifetime of failures and frustrations.
Soon I'll be pulled back to Earth,
the gravity of you and him
dragging me away
But for now I float freely
weightless, formless.
lost in your orbit,
the joy and freedom flowing from my lips into the air
For now, for this briefest patch of time,
I don't care.
