We have given so much for this life of ours. We yearn, for we desire and want...and to admit we want to believe in something, is to open us to an invisible faith. To adhere us to the ethereal and mystifying unachievable.
We have sacrificed so much and searched so long for our peace, we seldom believe these days it is obtainable...or deserved. We have come to see only our errors, our ignorance, and our faults...our punishment. This is our punishment....to feel....alone.
Our bodies continue to age, our culture continues to change...and yet we still have a child's heart. We want for understanding, for our voice to be heard. For our feet to settle and for our tears to dry. We are not forgotten, and we are not lost. We are lonely, and to you, lonely come us. Forgive us...we still want as a child.
I want to laugh beside you. I want to hum and dance. I want to look out upon the stars and see something gentle, something soft...
Your head deserves to rise again, to look up into eyes filled with compassion and love. This is not your punishment, nor the life you are living, a crime. Whisper on the winds for us and we will be beside you for however long it takes to see that smile begin again.
We want to believe in you...imagine how we'd feel if you believed in us too. ---------------------------------------------- Inspired by Le Caire's " Reflect " which can be found here https://soundcloud.com/le-caire-msc/reflect
