Hands pull me down The world falls away below me Rain slowly passes From rooftops and trees It sings in my ears Flying against the wind, rain in my eyes Building my room up around me The window is hallowed with budding blossoms And earthen ties Wary and lost, Wanting to cry, I give in With simple words An epic story is told Tales of Sun and rising seas A dream carefully woven into a new truth I listen in awe, and tremble Our spirits rejoice Dancing on shadows of footsteps Echoes of laughter in fractures of the fray Crumbling walls in palaces of song Eyes shine on the nameless Giving in to dread shamelessly gleaned Nourish the changes, inside and around you Take refuge beneath deep rooted trees And light dims, as night comes
