Fly Poem by Emily Casbourn

If my soul could sing
I know I could fly
If my heart would weep
I would fall into mud
If I couldn't tell you how I felt
I wouldn't stand again
If time could stand still
I would explain myself time and time again
If I could fly
I would fly to you
If I could fly
I would bring you with me
We would soar above the stars
Into the setting sun
As the colours blinded our sight
It would be mystifying
We could fly beyond the horizon
Distance wouldn't be a problem
It wouldn; t be a bother
You know I would find you
I would whisk you away
Fly to a new deserted place
I would call it Utopia
Paradise for the heart
No one would find us
Until I showed them how
You wouldn't believe it
Somehow it would work
If I could fly
My heart would sing
My soul would flutter beneath my wings
If you knew how much I yearned to be
You would see me
I would fly to you
If only I could
Life goes on
I still wish I could fly
I wish I could see you
Barriers would be broken
Then I would fly
