The sun sees my pain
The wind roars through my Soul
The Earth holds the memory of my birth
while the burning fire of truth
rages on through my world…
*
My broken, naked body
is twisting in the wind
I walked the open pathways
And let the fury in
And now my body’s open, broken
twisting in the wind
*
Broken parts and pieces
broken hearts abound
My heart is lying open, broken
No one is around
and though I’m screaming so loud
no one else can hear a sound
*
I will stand and face the fury square on
look it in the eyes
My sword is strong
cut to the heart
of confusion and the lies
*
In the hallway of my heart
my sisters stand and hear my cries
*
Let the sun take my pain
Let the wind cleanse my Soul
Let the Earth hold the memory of my birth
Let the fire burn cleanly through my Life
Let the deeply sacred flame of Love
burn fully through my world
*
