I heard the wild thunders as they approached my territory .
I felt your thirst for my blood in the air we call used to call home .
I listened out for your remorsefulness in the way you ran against peace.
Silently I stood there waiting for the tides to turn in my favor .
Silently I stood there with my mouth open waiting to join your pack.
Silently I stood there waiting for your voice to pull me into your winds .
Blamelessly I stood on the cliff holding on to my dying flowers .
Blamelessly I stood on the cliff holding on the roaring currents .
Blamelessly I stood on the cliff only to descend to grave sites that I know not of .
**But don't agonize over me because
I got used to the fall, to the cold, to the anguish.
Above everything else I bloomed before you even noticed.
So be sure you're not afraid when I rise above thunders and roaring currents .**
I AM A CLIFF SURVIVOR
I know how these things work ..........
