that was
in my head
and placed it on the outside
of me
I asked the silence
to protect me
but it did not
I took the rage
that was
in my head
and placed it on the outside
of me
I asked the rage
to protect me
but it did not
So I began searching
for a clue
to this game
and realized
the answers are before me
And the wind carried me up
And the clouds fell all around
And the sparrows began
dancing, dancing
And Mother Earth
took me
and wrapped me in
Her arms
and I began
dancing, dancing
And the silence
and the rage
were no more
And Father Sky
took me
and wrapped me in
His arms
and I began
singing, singing
And the silence
and the rage
were no more
