Today I am excited to share something new and different! As a challenge towards growth, I’ve been working on songwriting over the past several weeks, exploring themes related to souls’ nurture and discovery. One of my first pieces is now up on YouTube. It’s a twist on a classic myth you may recognize. If you listen, any insights or advice you care to share would be warmly welcomed!
Lyrics:
I dream of grains and candle wax
In nighttime, wings unfurling
While on this shore, the tides collapse
The things I sought alone
And in the darkness I knew well
By my own touch long shaped
I thought I knew all forms it held
Yet stirs now, mystery
And tide draws deep the land line
And Earth floods back the sea
And in this way two shapes entwine
About the space between
So lost the path my blood laid out
Lost my bounded home
As flames unto the night breeze bend
So I, to this unknown
And tide draws deep the land line
And Earth floods back the sea
And in this way two shapes now wind
And make the space between
Now from the storied path I step
The edge of my history
For smoke and souls know best the quest
To seek eternity
Seek your riddle if you will
From Aphrodite –
In ocean swell I am fulfilled
All Psyche is the sea.
And tide draws deep the land line
And Earth sighs back gently
And in this way these shapes entwine
Of Psyche and the sea
