A Shame

For so long I held myself
In the image of perfect health
For so long I held myself to blame
In the image of perfection, in its tight frame
Shame has the better of me now
Awake to its hands, I lean my brow
In this pattern I’m consumed
I have no power and I have no room
In this pattern I’m still turning myself around
In the image of perfection I am still bound
Shame has the better of me now
Awake to its hands, I lean my brow
Shame has the better of me now
Awake to its hands, I lean my brow

Waiting To Love

We still go into the love we’ve known
But not the love we want
Fighting the space of the great unknown
For what we thought we might want
And love is waiting for you
Unchanged, a stranger till it holds you
Love is the fabric in which we’re born
To wrap us as we emerge
Worn in the world as the cloth we bear
Both shield or sword or which came first
Is love still waiting you
It’s changed, you recognize what holds you
Born to the roots of our family trees
Where all our ancestors converge
Holding the strings of our human ways
So life becomes where they converge
And love is waiting for you
Unchanged, a stranger till it holds you
Is love still waiting you
It’s changed, you recognize what holds you
