Shapeshifting

Trust me, trust me dear
When I start shapeshifting here
For I exist in you
And you are alive in the mountains too
Oh and as these ice caps melt
The seas will , Rise
And take you further up
Oh to live your lives
In the Sky
Oh, your bodies, They wont last
Whats inside, Is infinite
Oh, these rivers
Sing so loud
All can hear, their Echo
Trust me, trust me dear
When I start shapeshifting, here
For you, exist in me
Losing yourself
In the wind and the sea
Oh and as you drill in me
A dark black, snake will Rise
Teach you to leave
Oh behind your skin
All this greed
Oh my body, it wont last
Whats inside is infinite
Oh these Spirits, sing so loud
All can hear, their Echo
Trust me, As I’m Shapeshifting
Trust me, Change is happening
Trust me as I’m Shapeshifting
All will come and be
Trust me as I’m Shapeshifting
Stone, Feather, Skin, Leaves

Embers

May the embers
In our hearts
Rise above the flames
As the smoke that is our past
Unveils truth, again
We dig our holes, and place our sticks
To light a fire on our idleness
Sparking the passion
That exists, in each of us
Let us act on it
We live, we learn, we hurt, we Love
And sometimes we lose it all
Realize that our true selves
Have a deeper call
Through the ashes that bless this ground
Those that burned lay fertile now
Through their layers we grow and sprout
Determined to branch change out
We use our bodies as shields to the
War upon our humanity
Dodging the bullets that were sent from the
Darker forces, may we lighten thee
We live, we learn, we hurt, we Love
Sometimes we lose it all
Realize that our true selves
Have a deeper call
We rise, we fall, yet our blood still pounds
Eager to risk it all
We can survive anything, when we unify our hearts
We can survive anything, when we unify our hearts
When we unify our hearts, when we unify our, hearts

Feet, dirt, dust & dreams
Destiny she leads
You knew and no one knew X2
As roads became our home
trust held strong like stone
I let my heart go
A hunger in me rose
For you, for you, for you,
Have known me from another time
And we, we , we
Share memories in each others eyes
Earth turns & shakes
Parts of us awake
An ancient deepening
From realms far, between
In your travelled soul
lives a bond so old
Ripples start to grow
A hunger in me rose
For you, you, you
Have loved me from another time
And we, we ,we
Share memories in each others eyes
How did the earth come to be
Bursting from stars & g a l a x i e s
How did you find me
Across the stars & g a l a x i e s

Sea Planes
05:00
|

It started with you eyes,
A world I wandered in
At times when you would hide
From curious glances
We paddled to an island
On the salt spring sea
Exotic snakes were breeding there
A treasure found in madrone trees
Chorus -
Sea planes
Are taking off
My salt skin, ohh ooh
Protecting my heart
Sea planes,
Are taking off
My salt skin
Protecting my h e a r t
Verse II
Understood in words,
A poets longest spell,
As truth inside me yearns
To echo thoughts you’ve held
Sweet vulnerability
In a tent under the moon
Listening I be, To all parts of you
Chorus-
Sea planes
Are taking off
My salt skin, ohh ooh
Protecting my heart
Sea planes,
Are taking off
My salt skin
Protecting my h e a r t
Bridge-
Lifted over skiffs we watch it soar
Im still drifting please dont take me back, dont take me back to shore
Cause I got this little feeling as I , saw you in the door
That just maybe, oh maybe, we both done this thang
We both done this thang, oh done this thang before
We both done this thang
Oh we both done this thang
Before

Sparrow

I try today , to open my heart
A little wider
See those that I've been missing , like
The man on the corner
The homeless man
Societies cast away
A witness to the normalizing
Of inequalities hard face
The one whose found a way to
Survive in
Survive in
The glass & rubble
Survive in
These growing troubles
I try today , To open my eyes
A little wider
See those that I've been missing , like
The woman on the corner
The painted woman with eyes of a sparrow
Casting protection over us all
Or these words etched into city walls
Lead in to Verse
A poem to keep us
Alive and involved
Keep us,
alive and involved
Keep us
Feeling something at all
So we take a moment just to see
The beauty in the side streets
All that's living whether we see
Between the cracks in concrete
Oh a love, between,
the nature inside
And the nature that's become
The Wild
The Wild & ragged
Streets
I try today just to open my heart
A little wider
I try today just to open my heart
A little wider
