Come away with me
there’s a place I know
where everyone,
regardless of their differences
may dance in the light of their dreams,
giggle as they glide past their fears,
frolic over their frenzies,
waltz past their worries,
and leap past lies.

So come away with me,
brave the inky black unknown.
Close your eyes, take my hand,
trust me. Soon we will be together.
I’ll show you the way,
we’ll carry the light of hope,
a lantern illuminating the path.
With you by my side, I won’t
be scared.
We will make it to this
place I know.
Take a deep breath, step into the abyss
and come away.
