The first time I saw you, I didn’t. Maybe in my heart I knew you didn’t see me. Maybe I was just scared to let love bloom, or maybe, just maybe, I did see you. The veils of time blur the memory until time itself brings it back – stark, clear, sharp. This time I see you, through the veil, through time, and you, you see me too. You always saw me. I just didn’t know.

The Unfolding

I welcome you,
You who loves me,
You who makes me smile,
Shows me the way,
Brings up sorrow, tears and pain.

I thank you,
You who teaches me,
You who leads the way,
Shows me how to feel,
Brings my darkness up to be seen.

Today we dance together,
My darkness and my light,
Today we love each other,
My turmoil and my quiet,
Today we hold each other,
My desires and my fears,

And so,

I thank you,
You who shames me,
You who makes me hurt again,
Shows me truth,
Brings up old, fathomless untruths.

I welcome you,
You who sees me,
You who hears my cry,
Shows me my magic,
Brings wonder, joy and good times.

Now we merge together,
A swirl of colour and light,
Now we sing together,
A song of radiance and might,
Now we're still together,
A silence so deep, so right.

The Risen

We are the ones,

A promise kept,

We rise above,

Darkness reject,

We shine our truth,

Fountains of youth,

We bring you love.

In love we walk,

Hand in hand,

Meet shadows deep,

Dark and sad,

In love we melt,

Cleanse and clear,

Till dawn breaks through.

We walk our talk,

Fall and rise,

We build new lives,

Call in soul tribes,

We find ourselves,

Hold your hands,

New days have come.
