i stopped a moment to take a look,
it melted my emotions dry.
a lonely flower is what i took,
that grew up far beyond the sky.
i reached up high beyond my own,
falling down--i found my wings.
discovered i was not alone,
my soul was only bound by strings.
touched them all in a blind rush,
climbed over helpless fear.
slept in a sea of velvet lush,
lost my own face in the mirror.
when it comes time for me to die,
i know my icing will melt.
down from the candy coated sky,
and you will taste what i have felt.
