Beyond

I wish to go beyond, to faraway
Somewhere far, farther than today
Beyond the small confines of my fears
Above the grey clouds of my saline tears
To where I can soar towards the golden sun
Where I won’t have to hide or run

I wish to go beyond, somewhere
Fields of green and life to share
With those I love and closely keep
Near my heart and then gently sleep
In night’s embrace and day’s caress
In deep slumber of sweet peacefulness

I wish to go beyond, sometime
Where time stands still in my solitary mind
Each moment is all mine to seize
Wishes and dreams for my hand to reach
Far beyond, and farther still
Until nothing is but love to feel
