On The Wings of Paradise

by Renee   Jul 3, 2005


Standing alone
on the wings of paradise
music surrounds me
not an evil soul in sight

I feel at peace with myself
but it won't last long
because being alone
comes with a hefty bond

I remember that empty feeling
but I'm pushing it away
I want to enjoy this flight
on the wings of paradise

as a slight breeze whisks across my face
softer than my lovers embrace
I hold onto this feeling
a feeling of warmth and familiarity

I don't wish for this to go away
but It's too good to last
these wings of paradise
found in my secret stash

and as the last of the ashes
fall to my bedroom floor
the music fades
and these wings are no more.

    Well....I do like it but I'm not sure I get it. Are smoking reefer? Seriously...I don't get it. It's in the nature department....so are you just enjoying nature right now or are you getting high on natural herbs? (Secret stash?) Hmmmm? LMAO...I'm seriously confused. Let me know and I'll write more....
