" what is it that makes us tear the page and begin again? what is it that makes us weep and feel our pain?
Invisible Indivisible Unspeakable aching in my heart
Invisible Indivisible Unspeakable aching in my heart
The thread we feel, that links us so...through the universe it goes
past all time and space to places deep and holy the first kiss -our souls meet this healing in a blinding flash
i fall from the sky looking at your beauty
why the sword ? why the chains?
why the locks and guns when we can just fly?
this sorrow ..this joy ...this let go ...this hello... this goodbye
Invisible Indivisible Unspeakable Radiance we hold
Invisible Indivisible Unspeakable Radiance we hold...
