Never came to be Aware of true me Thriving in the dismay Where fear burns my eyes Still I know the word I've been blessed by grace Yet I long for a mane to keep me warm I rake the sand in me A brighter tone of grey Coming from the horizon Of the fateful span Gratitude and shame Shake hands in me truly And I wait for the grey to reel away Deeper into the hay The ray, it swarms tonight Catching my skin in shade I never thought it'd come Just tonight, fill my sight And melt the grey away I rake the sand in me A milestone in grey Came in days too early To face all that light A permission to stay In gratitude and joy And I wait for the grey to reel away
