So much depends upon
The open sky cut open by the trees
By the rain by the lives that we led
Upside down we stood as if for years
Waiting to become the person
We were meant to be
On the back trails of our open heart
So much depends upon
Listening to Bach in the dark
How poets undressed our sympathy
In clothes of the absolute
So much depends upon
The sound of Mandarin like
Circumstance, and stillness that never dies
These were the cries that we reached
Out for, as if we could grasp the light
So much depends upon
The dreaming of what is possible
And prowling around the people
Whom we let hurt us in order to
Learn more completely how to feel.
