vulnerability


vulnerability
makes me real
openness makes me fear
fear makes me feel
feelings make me strong
strength makes me live
life makes me real
so vulnerability
makes
me
real

is colour so very important


is colour so very important
we are from the same tree
hanging from the same branch
why choose one and leave the other
is one too green or the other too red
our differences define us
separate us
make us US
look beyond our colours
we are from the same tree
hanging from the same branch
is colour so very important

if i am beautiful to you


if i am beautiful to you
if i am truly beautiful to you
that's because
you've embraced
my
SHADOW

coming home



i'm home at last
on my island
on my own
i'm home

i whisper
no one will hear
no one need hear
i'm home to me
all to myself
all by myself

i'm home
and that's where
i want to be

going home


one step
one foot after the other
the vision clear
the path clear
ahead
far ahead
not far
near
nearer
the journey will end
and begin

feeling light
happy
joyous
each step
step by step
nearer nearer there

criss-cross lives
FATE
determined
designed
executed
etched
a life that was
a life that is
a life that will be

one step
one foot after the other
the journey be done
going home
being home
am home

my shadow and i



how we dance
if we can
in tune with each other
in time

when we dance
arm in arm
cheek to cheek
close close
as one

we float
we swing
we glide
we move
as only we can
if only we can
one day we can

how we dance
when we can
in tune with each other
in time

greener pastures

far far away
the dream beckons
come away come away
i wait

i see
i like
i want
take me away
let me go

beneath me glitter gems
i see not
too near
too familiar
my heart's closed too

look down
look near
see what you have
SEE what you have
no need to go
you have enough.
