Tonight there is a stillness and calm in the air.
A fullness to my heart
that says just maybe
if I believe hard enough
and I bleed deep enough
that I shall be forgiven at
the gates, and these iron
shackles that bind my wings
to me, my sword to my spine
That maybe they will be set free.
Tonight there is a stillness and calm in the air….. Where my soul can be whole and I can be me.
