move with me
lead
and i will follow you through hell
into places where the heart doesnt dare to go
into breath
and into life
into depths unknown
with fear so deep that it freezes every step in time
yet we dance
in rhythm
and with ebb and flow
we
in the midst
swirling and keeping time with the heart
melodies of dying to a finite beating
life slipping by slowly
yet you keep your head thrown back laughing
head thrown back laughing
in the midst of it all
I stumble
I fall to the ground
i forget to flow
i feel so strong when i fight against it
but suffering is the road
not the goal
and so we dance
in any one moment
we can both choose to know
we can both embrace connection
we can know that this
could be our last time together
in a moment possibly extended over a lifetime
and that to flow as one
through this
the dark night of the soul
is as rare a song as can be played
for all along
the mind plays tricks with what the heart provides
and i can convince myself of anything...
rest assured i have no worth....
without a doubt I have failed at everything I have ever attempted....
there is no question that I am no longer alive....
i can convince myself that anything I choose to believe about you is true
or I can choose to move
with you
and so we dance
I stumble
I fall to the ground
in rhythm
with ebb and flow
we
in the midst
swirling and keeping time with the heart
memories
melodies of dying to a finite beating
life slipping by slowly
yet you keep your head thrown back laughing
head thrown back laughing
in the midst of it all
because you know that suffering is the road
not the goal
suffering is always the road
never the goal
and so we dance
and so we dance
