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

*
