Between Heaven
And Earth
You reach down
I hold on tight
And I rise, past the stars
into the blue
with no horizon
I freefall
through the air, my lungs
Breathing in star dust
the ground far
below, the brightest
colors sing in my
mind,
my longing heart
taps a steady
rhythm, weightlessness
covers me like a
warm blanket, nothing matters
just the sound of
angels sighing, sound
waves stretching
like translucent bands
across the universe,
wispy tendrils of Light
surround my soul,
caressing, singing
bringing breath
into my earthen body
replacing these clay feet
with wings
my prismatic spirit
somersaulting across
the vast blueness
my soul soars
where angels sing
when we fly unfettered
between dimensions
heart ignites
and burns
to essence
of self.

WARNING. I will be tapping into one of your favorite creative tensions: The absurdity of humans worshipping their glowing rectangles as if they were tiny oracles. There’s something deliciously poetic about that contradiction, and it lends itself beautifully to an instructive proviso.

A dreamy poem of soaring through the stars, feeling weightless and free with angels—truly magical
Gosh, this was soooo beautiful! I freaking loved it 😍😍😍😍😍
This description of the experience is pretty vivid. It makes me think of that feeling when you're on a really intense rollercoaster. The part about breathing in star dust is cool. I wonder what inspired you to write this. Also, how did you come up with the idea of sound waves stretching like bands across the universe? It's a unique and interesting concept.
