Don't kid yourselves
Each and everyone of us
has the power to truly save
Yet all around us,
they are falling.
Shall we begin to
say their names?
Why do you carry on
as though you cannot
When something dimly-Beautiful
inside of you says. you. can.
And screams out into your soul
late at night,
That you will.
They are gone now;
my sweet Forever-Beautifuls
but not from you, they are..
Because it is The Fallen in them
that keeps telling you, that you can
and you will..
Truly save.
There is a song
that is buried deep
in every-one of us
that tells us
They will never be broken again.
The willow, it weeps today
A breeze from the distance
is calling your name
Unfurl your black wings and wait
across the horizon--
it's coming to sweep you away
It's coming to sweep you away
Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird, fly away
May you never be broken again
The fragile cannot endure
the wrecked and the jaded,
in a place so impure
The static of this cruel world
cause some birds to fly
long before they've seen their day..
Long before they've seen their day
Ascend, may you find no resistance
Know that you made such a difference
And all you leave behind
will live to the end
The cycle of suffering goes on
but the memories of you stay strong
Someday I too
will fly and find you again
Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird, fly away
May you never be broken again
Beyond the suffering you've known
I hope you find your way
May you never be broken again

#the-hope-of-the-fallen
within us all
is the power to truly save
that resides on the other side
of our much needed healing
and restoration.
