Call to the dust

 

CALL TO THE DUST

Waking to the light

I felt the weight of the past

In the space of here and now

My heart beat so fast

I’ve always looked straight at the pain

To know what made it breathe

I know it intimately, inside out

And I need it to leave

So I called to the dust

That had settled in places

Far away, out of eyesight

My life layered, but there are traces

That I have the answers

And I already know

How to live with the dust

And how to make it - just go

I drove and I screamed

I felt the some dust rise in my throat

Some dust was set free

I am my own - life boat

If it looks like I struggle

With what is mine

Wherever I’m at - know that I think I’m doing

Just fine!

The more you wonder why

I go where I do

To shift the dust that’s collected

Not looking it straight in the face

Is living a life that’s subjected

To not setting it free

To fly like a bird

And hear my voice on the breeze, The sweetest tune

, I’ve ever heard.
