we are sitting
in two seats
beside a small window
when it starts to move
my stomach drops
the wheels lift
off the ground
there is no way

we are above the city
she shakes
from excitement
I hold her hand
and she leans her head
on my shoulder
we are above the clouds
the future
is the fluorescent sky
floating beside us
in endless waves
I'm feeling alive
for once
and I realize
this is where we are meant to be
