Enigma Weekend Edition Poem: 'Fly Me to the Moon'

Fly Me to the Moon

By A. D.

Fly me to the moon

just out of reach

To get me away

from the sorrows

that I keep

locked away inside

a dark wooden box

buried in my soul.

I know not what lurks

in those shadows.

So, fly me to the moon

somewhere I can dream

of a love untold

a secret to unfold

a place to be me.

A place where the light

is always green;

a place where creativity

reigns supreme;

a place where God

is just but an arm’s reach.

Fly me to the moon.
