Connected skies

Song Cycle by Angela Elizabeth Slater

Never to leave
 (Sung text for setting by A. Slater)
 Matches base text

Language: English 
When the sky enclosed around me
Shrinking ever smaller
I found woven half dreams
fractured in spaces inbetween
which ache and screams
I tried to shut the noise out
but it echoed right back at me
never to leave or fully be
