Shadows of a different season The past and present entwined These emotional memories Transcending space and time In the sacredness of this second In this truly hallowed place I brush the tears from your eyes Caress your lovely face For it’s the sorrow of what has happened The pain for what can’t be Can’t turn back the tides of time Rewrite our history It catches us unawares When we’re looking the other way But the important things will surface And will always have their say So it’s in the beauty of this silence - The healing of this pain That comes only with divulging And the world becoming sane What’s repressed cannot be hidden These soul splinters that remain Will only be put to rest Once they have been named

Once They Have Been Named
Shadows of a different season The past and present entwined These emotional memories Transcending space and time In the sacredness of this second In this truly hallowed place I brush the tears from your eyes Caress your lovely face For it’s the sorrow of what has happened The pain for what can’t be Can’t turn back the tides of time Rewrite our history It catches us unawares When we’re looking the other way But the important things will surface And will always have their say So it’s in the beauty of this silence - The healing of this pain That comes only with divulging And the world becoming sane What’s repressed cannot be hidden These soul splinters that remain Will only be put to rest Once they have been named
