on the wing

[desmond dillon]

.

when everything is gone and you are left

abandoned alone and bereft

with nothing that you want here anymore

and nothing in your pockets

and nothing in the store

when that which you had counted on has let you down

and the last thing that you want

is a night out on the town

then i beg you please to listen out for me.

.

there's something you may not know i have to tell

about the secret i have found

on the other side of hell

its very close to where you are right Now.

look, beneath your feet and find

the ashes that you cannot leave behind.

Now find a phoenix sleeping deep therein

who dreams of hopes awakening

that turn every loss into a gain

with breath alone

thats bellowing the flame

whose fire leaps from within

and puts your flight upon the wing.
