High

by Ginette T Belle

Your soul couldn't get any higher
Take care this breeze doesn't blow you away

This twisted image of fire
Is turning you into a star that is dead in the sky

Just fake it and you will feel better
Like a heavy black cloud bursting through the sun

Stunned when you find you don't know her
Hands that are burnt from the ordinariness of the day

Please come down
'Cause there's no one around to save you
