Coming to Light
You had a fire in you didn't you I could feel it burning up
I had to be the cool water to your flame
it was a high wire wasn't it the imbalance never tamed
I lived inside a fear that had no name
there's a light across the floor
I am not who I was before
these things and more are coming to light
I am a flower in the garden I am wings and I am wind
I am flying higher closer to the light
and you are finally rightful size and I am slowly letting go
oh I was holding on with all my might
I am not and I am so
who I was a moment ago
these things I know are coming to light
is it just too bad or just as well
if I'm living in a ravaged shell
are these yours or my burning embers
There is a moment in us isn't there
any given breath to choose
between the darkness and the coming to the light
please remember don't forget me
if I'm letting go let me
I was tired from holding on so tight
there's a light that will arise
and you can see it through my eyes
as these things are I am coming to light
