Oh Destiny...
A part of me wants to be comfortable and familiar...
I seek tenderness, while my heart is in despair.
Wanting to run to the fields, and drive to the mountains....
I search for the answers, I cross the bridge, and climb the fence.
totally bare and open, exposed to the world....
Wanting to love, to run, to be free, oh... this lost little girl.
Should I go back to familiarity in my practical world?
Here I will cling to my creativity and learn how to pale...
All the while leaping into myself and crawling like a snail....
Why do I feel this, Nay.. what should I do?
For no-one can see this I carry, my hidden tattoo.
It's me, and me alone..to further my search...
I may not be understood, but this I will learn..
To love, to laugh to commit no sin.
I want to bury myself or let someone in!!
Oh destiny....betroth me I beg!
Give me a chance, let me breathe, let me go...
I will be enemy to none, I will be sunshine..
To lay upon the hillside, the mountain tops,
across the lakes and ocean, and into the sublime.
A ray of sun...a token of my life, the lips to my mouth.
Hello are you there? For it is me coming out!
