Everyday Avatar - Beauty And Truth

How to describe a failure of words?
Breathless with shock, the song of a bird
Breaks the spell
Unshackles my mind
Surrender my shape up to the sky
Never before seen and yet I soar
Ascend
A sound-vision unchained
Float through the ecstasy with such a view
Of horizons unbound
Filing my lungs with such joy
I must cry out this beauty
And sing it aloud

Never till now have I truly lived
What is a sound remembered with?
Can it be new
But already known?
No longer alone a multitude flock
Again my heart soars, my soul is unlocked
As we dive and we dance and we glide
Together as one

Time has no sense when surrounded by limitless sky
Air breathing life into earth
Such colors that were lost to my eye
So why do I choke?

Clouds open
The rain burns my wings
Diving in search of respite
Flames rise as the hills burn so strong
And the heat drives me up to the night
Crying out
Into the smoke
Ragged, bereft
What have you done?

Open my eyes seeing anew
Drawing in breath, unsure what to do
Stunned in silence
Beauty and truth
Clearly aware there's no absence of sound
I can't forget what I have found
And it's pure and it's joy and it's free
And now in my head

Seeing the future laid out
To the drone of fluorescent pale light
Cannot compare to the taste
Of the sound giving hope to take flight

Time to take flight
