Donations are essential to keep Write Out Loud going    

Faith has melted away like the last year's snow 

Bared the roughness and rust of my heart's broken edges 

Stopped my time yet again but you can’t change its flow 

I could not hear the night through your vows and your pledges 

 

I am washing my soul and my heart clean off you 

I am soothing my wounds with uncanning forgiveness 

For the castles of sand that it's driven us through 

For the shattered glass walls of your truths and your treasons 

 

Watch the beads of our lies as they bounce off the floor 

See them scatter away like the lives we have chosen 

Love's tiptoeing away down the hall through the door 

Slide your dreams right across broken heart that is frozen 

 

Have we ever fought hard for the right not to shred 

Lengths of silk that held tight our souls scarred with sorrow? 

I will walk down the path that your angels won't tread 

Take a bow as for us there will be no tomorrow

◄ To my sister
