lyrics

Let if fall
If, perhaps, who knows
Adventure or happenstance
The door softly closes on possibility
Goodbye the undiscovered
A future, distant horizon dimmed
Without investment, words are muffled
Like dulled hammers upon the strings
The melody of choice, rich with reward
Peters out without praise
Pray for yourself instead
Put it into preoccupation
And wonder later why night fell on her daydreams
Or instead, lay down proud prejudice
The fear you may be dimmed by the phosphorescence of her
And coax, kindle, breathe promise into life
A new breed; the animal at her core
Poised to pounce; the huntress
Skilled, ready to range the vastness of her lands
Savannah stretched out ahead
Grasslands, mountains, landscapes lit up
Landmarks where she tried, cried but did not die
Hope is the reservoir in her oil lamp
Urged forward by the feathery fuel of her family
Light upon her shoulders
Or let if fall
If, maybe, could, can
Shut in your fear filled palm
Can’t, won’t, shouldn’t, don’t
Steal, murder, extinguish
The universe inside her soul
