Love Poem: Flight

Written by: Michael Poyntz

Flight

we pause
			in flight
			as if suspended clouds
			arms outstretched
			to the sky
			as if imaginary 
			silver wings

			reaching far into
			the unborn sunrises 
			of our lives
			we are two
			you and i
			in total unison
			side by side

			the luxury 
			of trust 
			without fear
			the splendour 
			of gentle love
			our only wardrobe
			the naked truth

			soaring in flight
			parachutes not required 
			dreams shared as one
              	        seatbelts discarded 
			for the safety 
			each others heartbeat
	                ...up up and away
