fearful abstraction
I am very small
so brief
hear the heart
bend down to listen
hear the heart
it beats
have I got enough?
will I find a way?
some days afraid
I name the thing
some days laughter
sometimes sing
and follow
drift from the score
the wind picks up
I take a wave
I am from the past
as well
it's where
I learned the words
and here I am
just this today
grief for the gone
is my first hope
hear the heart
it beats
feel for
poor fellow everywhere
everyone
all
do you hear me?
can you see?
look for me
I'm gone
gone to the future
won't be back
haven't you
come with me?
without a song
no feet to find
no way to go
it's the story tells
I'm the gesture
I'm the change
I am very small
so brief
great...! I'm reminded of my partner talking about the blackbirds in our backyard... birds have such tiny hearts, but what a big voice!
