dark wings
I’m going down
Down into soil
I’m going down
Dark wings will guide me
I know the way
For I have been there
So many times I cannot count them
And though I know
I will return when
When the deed is done
When the seed is growing
My heart is scared
My limbs are shaking
It seems too cruel to have to do this
Over and over
Over and over
Why can’t I find
Some secret passage
That takes me there
Without the pain
My midnight wings beating in beauty
My conscious mind
My core of wisdom
Honours the dark essential journey
But when I’m crying
But when I’m crying
It seems so hard
Hard to remember
I’m going down
Down into soil
I’m going down
Dark wings will guide me
