Rani Turton - I Will

It goes beyond imagination
Why you hold me so high
Sometimes I feel exactly like
A diamond in the sky

You ask me about my projects and dreams
But, then words go a-tumbling
And aptly enough even the world seems
To stand still; sounds are muted
I thought of my life blighted
I thought of my days a-stumbling
The desires and dreams
The wondering and blundering
All the fearsome things that I've done
And more than that, at what I've become

But something took root after years of tears
A seed that you mystically planted
Well I can truthfully say that this heart may have been
Metaphysically transplanted
I've done with fears and fright
I 've walked out from the shadows
Right into the light
Now I remember you saying something about
Reaching out for my birthright
Not to let them sink me into sadness
To walk out from this kind of madness.
That I should. I could.

I will.
