A Woman\'s Song

awoken by  woman\'s Song 

how it overwhelmed me 

overtook me 

upended me 

tortured me 

 

I tried to roll back the sea 

the tide rolled in

it didn\'t care 

 

merciless love 

inspired silent oaths of fate 

there are things I knew as 

a child 

that are now just out of reach 

the memories come in dreams 

only to disappear when I awake 

but in those dreams ....

 

something so profound 

that there is only before and after 

a Woman\'s Song? 

If only I could remember...
