You’ve made me believe that today I can fly, that I can touch the stars as I pass by. You carry me past galaxies floating on clouds, wrapped in a dream and loving out loud. The magical carpet that sweeps me away, leaves me breathless, helpless, wanting to stay on Kryptonite, that mystic existence beyond, where time does not matter and magic abounds.
On top of a mountain on a planet beyond I cling to your safety and hold to your calm. Can I speak of the beauty that you have shown me? The doors you have opened, the wonders I see? My lips cannot form the words now in my mind, the heaven you’ve brought, the expressions now hide. The life that I knew before this was full, yet lonely and bland, bereft of a soul.
I stood all my life alone, apart without you, now you’ve come to my rescue in your red and your blue. I look at the others who have been there before, look back at their lives to what theirs had bore, I smile at their journeys, as they’ll never know, for the heavens I’ve reached on my ride do not show. The best part of the journey is yet to explore, as I take to the skies on my carpet once more.
I stand here with Superman close by my side on the mountain of Kryptonite ready to ride.
