Valid Minds

At 30,000 feet time below stands still

Admiring the cities, waterways created by will

Pearly white clouds hues of sky blue

Prior to this year don't recall the last time I flew

Portions of cities resemble death on inhabited

Reason for my trip pay homage to a life I once knew

Packed seats, little elbow room, rough ride its's dreary

Falling 30,000 feet let it go that thought is scary

Filter my thoughts in remeberance of my loved one

Another munite, another day, another memory just one

I'd like to tell you about my flight and the turbulence we incurred

Thoughts of you aborted as the Captain's message disturbed

There are no safety belts in life, parachutes or harnesses

Free falling through life's experiences is all that seems to exist

We've had those conversations a thousand times but never on a flight

What I wouldnt give to have that moment with you especially during this flight
