Lately I’ve been wanting to write songs.. and sing them. Feelings of inadequacy try to keep me from this task as I have never in my life written a song… but stepping aside and trusting I flow. and I want to share what came to me this morning which i have been singing ever since:
“Waking To Flight”
*When it all started
I was on shaky ground
not sure if I was flying
or falling, falling into the Sound
The ground was soft
at first but then
all of a sudden
it grew before me
trapping me in
I stood there staring
up toward the sky
wondering softly
why oh why
do I feel so small
*When it all started
I was on shaky ground
not sure if i was flying
or falling to the Sound
I was almost comforted
by my fears
of crawling inwards
away from his tears
Then like waking
to an alarm
I jumped up screaming
out of my skin
Angry for all of the
truths that I held
away from him
*When it all started
I was on shaky ground
not sure if i was flying
or falling, falling into the Sound
I look up toward
the star-filled sky
remembering my strength
and feeling oh so full of light
When it all started
I was on shaky ground
not sure if i was falling
but now I know I’m flying high
I know I already said this, but this song totally fucking rocks! It’s even better with the music. Tell those feelings of inadequacy to go lie to someone else, because they have no place with you. 🙂
cassiopeia mama!
there’s music!?! so, someone wants to practice their listening skills 😉
i sung it right away. couldn’t keep myself from belting it out. i’m sure the neighbors loved it as much as i did.
