He elopes with reveries
Firmly clasped
In his iron vise

Taking off
For uncharted skies
As his inner demons
Prowl, and draw near

Into vapor
Is the fate
Of his long harbored regrets

Undone
In the exhausts
That propel him higher
To yearn
To fervently dream

They are left
Tarnished
Beyond all recognition

In the deafening triumph
In the swift climb
To majesty
