They Think

Standard

They think she’s the crazy one.

She hears them talking but she does not care.
She is drunk on life itself.
Dancing by herself,
Using the the whole earth as her dance floor.
And they cannot imagine why she smiles and laughs so
As she twirls
And swirls her hips,
Hands overhead as she is reaching for the sky.
Because, she is somewhere else in her soul.
They do not know
The other life she lived.
And she is ever so grateful to be
So beautifully free.
She cannot
Hold it inside.
That is where she was trapped most of her life.
No more.
No more.

Do not let fear,
(or the figments of your imagination)
Hold you back from
Freedom,
Whatever that may mean to you.

Wildness

Standard

Do not fear your own wildness.
Set yourself free.
The part of you
That you put to sleep
When you were young
After being told
You were too much.
Always too much.
Too much beauty.
Too much
Laughter.
Too much loudness.
Too many questions.
Let your wild hair down.
Let your wild voice sing.
Let your wild feet dance.
Let your wild eyes see.
Let your wild arms embrace.
Let your wild out.
Set yourself free.

Saturation

Standard

She dances in the rain without hesitation,

Unaware of the beauty she brings to the storm.

For even the raindrops

Relish the journey as they free fall from

Heaven,

Praying to be the lucky ones.

The ones to touch her.

Anticipating the precise moment

Of

Contact,

Aching for

Unified saturation.

Sneak Out

Standard

Let’s sneak out after midnight.

Meet me down the road.

We’ll go running through the field.

Nobody will know.

Bring your father’s bourbon

And a radio too.

We’ll listen to some music.

Maybe dance a song or two.

I’ll bring us a blanket

And wear my yellow dress.

The one I wore last summer.

The one you like best.

We’ll lay down with each other.

Not breathe a single word.

Because we know what our hearts are saying.

Nothing that can be heard.

We’ll count the stars to a million.

We’ll laugh until we cry.

We’ll hold each others hands.

Watch the lightening bugs make fire in the

Sky.

And I can’t wait to see you.

Can’t wait to breathe you in.

Can’t wait to see your laughing eyes

And do it all again.
