Love’s Release

Rock sharp and deeply wounded

There’s no coming back from the dark

But I’ve found a sedative

That’s highly inspirational

In the back of my moving vehicle

In this trunk so deep

A cave of thoughtful heirlooms

You should know my heart

From the bitter to the beautiful

A pouring down of oil that anoints all I see

Because inside me it’s breaking over and over

These canyons of despair and valleys of elation

The Savage rejects the soma

And so I let myself go in every way I can

To empty myself of self

To be nothing so I can be everything

And as I am so free like the first creation

You should know my heart

If it be in His design

If you should so choose

To gather your strength and integrity

To rally your honesty and humor

To be so bold as to dare to know my heart
