THE BREAKING MAKES A SOUND
I never knew could be
So beautiful and loud,
Fury filled and we collide.
So courageous until now,
Fumbling and scared.
So afraid You’ll find me out,
Alone here with my doubt.
Here it comes, a beautiful collision
Is happening now.
There seems no end to where you begin and
There I am now – You and I collide.
Something circling inside,
Spaciously you fly,
Infinite and wide,
Like the moon and sky collide.
Here it comes now….
David Crowder & Jack Parker
