Tread light through your frame of mind,

Over broken glass

Over a ceiling in shards  

Over a deepening chasm

–

Tread light

And allow your screams to unfold

As you pelt the hard ground

With cold rainfall

–

Stay afloat in the silence

Above the snares of the mire

When your heart weighs heavy

And resounds with her voice

–

Never let her rhythm fade

From your own defiant pulse

And her star will climb

To light the safest path onward
