  |  fly me home |  | Fly me home
 To pleasant moons
 Ruined grass
 Familiar Voices that quench the drum of my ears
 
 Do not hinder me Lord
 There are children to be born
 Into a life with no monsters
 Tearless nights
 Into a restful sleep after a playful morning
 Where time does not conspire with misery
 
 Take me, to the stillness of a kind embrace
 My grandfather’s scent
 A room filled with my cousin’s laughter
 
 Where an honest prophet
 Tells me that bigotry is not religion
 Loathing is sin
 To people
 I have known to do
 Instead
 Of hovering on a well written speech
 A home land
 Where
 I am
 Neither submissive nor a whore
 A state of being
 
 Friends with wide open doors
 Taking me in
 Laughter, luggage and broken dreams
 
 
 Unlike the alleys I ran from
 Too many visions
 Yet nothing to be seen
 
 Fly me
 Away from the salty oceans of my heart
 And the confusion of a mind
 That still believes in a kinder time
