What the Water Gave

When I can’t sleep my demons come
Keep me awake, wait on the sun
I am tired of ways long passed
They linger here I won’t back, I won’t go back
I traveled roads to hear my soul
Heal the years that took a toll
I found hope in wandering with
The company of living gifts
River called, told me to come
Mark the close of all we’d done
Body cold, feel the pain
Feel alive, feel again
I shake the sleeping self
Let memories take hold
Hand on my head
A blessing said now go
I rise from the river awake
I won’t forget what the water gave
Deep within a holy place
Held safe is a space
Where I go when I drift
I breathe deep the river’s gift
Still I feel that full embrace
How I widened and how I changed

Flame

Warm firesides and candle light
Feels like dinner time
You came like the wind
Breathed yourself in
In my chest
Put to rest my alarms
This is where I belong
Here in your arms
Three words that you said
Dropped from my head to my heart
Brought down my guard
Walls melted away
From the heat of your flame
Your my place
Your my fire place

Human to Human

We’re all just holding it together
Navigating our own stormy seas
It gets a little complicated
Navigating both you and me
There’s a certain loneliness with living
Of not being fully understood
Parts endured without echo
To find happiness for the most
It’s a going beyond us
With no guarantees
We’re all fragile creatures
Doing our best
Each other’s teachers
Each with our own mess
It’s a work that exceeds us
But still heeds us to come
Lean in to the work of
Human to human
Sometimes I lack the intuition
To know just what you need
Maybe I’m not supposed to meet it
But would you still explain it to me
When I say things that are awful
Look for the reason underneath
It’s not you it’s all of my trouble
Troubling me
We might destroy each other with our efforts of good intent
The alternative’s the same
I’ve never been so naked
Yet so settled and safe
In other words this is love, love
Love, love
This is love, love
Love, love
