so many felt it
as it hovered so close
a suffocating sensation
the heart compressed
 

like a dark shadow
a blanket of gloom
the pendulum moved
from glad to sad
 

remember now
it’s a state of being
remember now
you have a choice
 

to be that someone
who makes the difference
to be the chivalrous
gallant and proud
 

rise up rise up
climb over the
heartache
 

rise up rise up
and heal thyself
 

believe in the magic
the miracles the mystery
bring back the light
and save the day
 

I extend my arms
compassion’s embrace
I open my heart
with love’s fulfillment
 

momentum intention
to be what we are
perfection reflection
enlightened stars
 

here, where I
adore, who you are
