The weather brushes aside
And I am alive
Still, in spite of all the years
And the tears
Only served to make me stronger
But I don’t entertain them any longer
And I lost someone who means the most to me
But I’ve been consoled he’s been set free
Unto the Great Expanse
Where all the spirits go to dance
When their day is done
In the realm beneath the sun
We call Earth
And the hurt
Fails and falls apart
Under the power of the heart
And he’s always throwing slurs
Because he’s afraid of what we were
In the old domain
And he’s had his share of pain
And he takes it out on us
The female is no longer a plus
One
And undone
Is the male sovereignty
That tries to lay claim to the best of me
In the winter months
And all of the stunts
That they pull
Can’t destroy the cotton wool
Of being pure
It’s the one thing I know for sure
