i was in the park
almost after dark
waiting for a sign
something bright enough to spark
But nothing ever came
I still felt the same
Even though their light flickers
stars will still be stars
On and on
The satellites
are still revolving
On and on
It's funny
how life keeps resolving
On and on
The answers come
but in their own time
On and on
Stop waiting
and instead just be here
So I went home alone
Tears had turned to stone
wounded by the silence
on the psychic's telephone
So I kept up the noise
challenging at the sky
maybe raising hell
will get the heavens to reply?
On and on
The satellites
are still revolving
On and on
It's funny
how life keeps resolving
On and on
The answers come
but in their own time
On and on
Stop waiting
And instead just be here
I returned Nira Rock
just to take a walk
Even though the sun was setting
I ignored the clock
Adn let the silence deepen
cacophony was beaten
and just like every night
a million stellar flares shone bright

Glossy white and gleaming
Inside it smelled like plastic
My family's new Sedona
was glamorous and magic
But mama just cried
she knew how much we'd lose.
cuz Daddy had tried to spend away the blues
long long ago
good or bad let it pass
long long ago
never was meant to last
Long long ago
is a lilting refrain
but Long long ago
won't be holding me back
Me and my shadow
would turn into each other
at seventeen all my sorrows
were walls that shut out others
Longing for love
I feared rejection more.
To how many hearts did I close the door?
Pages keep on turning
but here I am
still learning
with eyes on the horizon
I watch the sunrise burning
Time's just a rhyme
I wanna feel the present glow
Heart in the Now
I can feel my spirit grow

i was walking with the dead
when he walked into my life
a kind of Master Zen
his eyes were clear and spirited
I was listening long before
there were words...
he said
deep behind the hologram
Is a mystery, a silent thoughtless gap
I know you've been afraid of that
but now the tides aren't holding back
The surging of an ocean inside
has begun...
it's so easy
to follow the hounds
of reason and "logical thought"
but lately
I'm tired of the chase
never still, unfulfilled
i just wanna feel whole
standing at the water's edge
i cried: I don't even know myself!
and all I thought I knew is lost.
the Master answers with a smile
he turns and he answers
"is that so?"
i'm giving up
yes i'm giving in
to awakening
