I will turn you into good
you can stay as long as you like
I’ll never bite, and I’ll never ‘should’
I will turn you inside out
The moments full of grasps
sets the tone for my life
Fighting for the lasts
pondering an afterlife
They show up like comrades
without warning or knowing
energetically linked with light
helping to keep me going
The only reason for a season
is to force us back together again and again
The changing leaves, the longing tides
it’s cooler now, we must gather and not hide
I will turn you into good
you can stay as long as you like
I’ll never bite, and I’ll never ‘should’
I will turn you inside out
Say what you say for one more day
so I can rise full of love, with a pace to slay
The words lay not just in my heart
but inside and around and glazed upon my skin
Painted into light, distinguished
singing with wings, swimming with breath
bursting with bright, following the depth
I watch the stars from a fluid place
Breaking free has an illusory feeling
I am here, feet on earth, hands in sky
Chose to come, chose to be, chose to give
I am here to feed, to heal and to undo the greed
The truth takes time to find
It’s there though, way deep inside the mind
Then poof, there is no going back
She is gone and found at the same time, without any lack
Let it come, let it run
Let it be, let it go
Let it shine, let it find
Let it grow, let it flow
Through empty forests
with wisdom too far known
Through terrifyingly wide waters
deeply held and spread, always alone
It is not without resistance
we are shapeshifters with gifts
to share, to blend and to receive
I wait in line, frozen, then… proceed
