Mother
See the night as it glows,
See the moon as it shines
The stars are my jewles
the sun is my crown
I live amongst shadows
Yet I am the light
The darkness consumes me
yet I control the dark
I sleep on clouds of dreams
Dreams from long ago
I live in the mind of a madman
A mind called earth
Man destroys what is close to them
Consumes all it can consume
Yet still I see hope in the end
I see the mind be healed
I stray along the river of hope
I watch the whater flow
I feel the wind on my cheek
I see the light in her eyes
I meet her alone at the sea
marooned in my dreams, in my hopes
I whisper to her softly
Soothing her pain
I touch her hair
See her smile
I feel her love
And I love her
She is eternal
She is all
She is my mother
She is Gaya
And we hurt her...
