lyrics

For a time I sat,
head on Astraea's lap,
tree dripping soft dew upon me.
Then we looked out beyond,
to the field where I had lain,
and the down the mountain's face.

Like a serpent entwined 'round
unlucky prey or a trunk,
an energy loop surrounded
the jagged walls of rock,
showing my path through
the gates of Cleansing and Grief.

I looked to her eyes,
earthen and clever,
coming to feel their message,
in the growing sunrise -

Far have I traveled
through stars and this place,
many lessons enveloped,
home displaced.

Still farther I have to go,
more Guardians to align with
in the far reaches of space.

Loss has not consumed me,
nor will it ever.
My family's waiting,
no matter the weather.

Lifted with lotus
and blossoms alike,
I'm sent up to the expanse,
fierce Lion my light.
