Far off voices
Whisper in the night
Tender are the moments
Just before light
Speak to me darling
And carry me across
The water burns
And my feet blister
A cry of pain
With tears of joy
A baptism in Hell
Or could this be Heaven?
Limbs reaching upward
Grasping for something not yet there
A fiery ball radiates and pulsates
Heat rises and the air becomes chilled
Seek me out
In a crowd of billions
Draw me near
Set me free
My soul yearns for freedom
A freedom this world cannot give
Long for your touch
To be held in your embrace
Keep me safe
My love
From myself
