Blast Off
Thou blast off at the speed of light
Not much time, goes away with a snap
The moment it begins to unwrap
The feeling comes, only when it’s right
It makes everything feel alright
Between these moments, there is a gap
And then it all turns to white
I long for this feeling, being present always
I just wish, oh so faintly, that it would stay
But it never does, coming in short rays
This itch, never fading, refusing to decay
None of this stops me, I’ll search through the haze
I’ll blast off, if that is what it takes, I pray, oh I pray
