Unbecoming

Lost souls and concrete boxes
Misperceptions, old world limits

I clean my eyes and realize
These skies are full of wonder, boundless 

Expand beyond these walls
Life flow through me like water falls
I bleed, release what I don’t need
Surrender to the unbecoming

Amnesia of who I am
Blinded by old ghosts and shadows
Place my heart to the land
Pray she guides my sacred spiral 

Winter spring summer fall
Shifting moons, moved by it all
I breathe, release what I don’t need
Surrender to the unbecoming 

Shedding scales, Not one by one 
All at once like serpent
Give them all back to the veil
Prepared to live and die in service

I lift my head up to the sky
Free the stardust of my mind
I shine, dissolve all I don’t need
Surrender to the unbecoming

Unwind, unravel
This road we travel
No lines, no control
I float, I let go
I’m free and easy 
No need for battle
I’ll beat my drum
And shake my rattle

I sacrifice
Blood, body and bone
To sit upon 
This wild throne
Outdone, outcast,
and overgrown
I’ve never felt
Quite more at home

This life was never meant to be
Prepared or pre-planned
And every time I’ve got a grip
It slips right through my hand

I spiral down into the ground
And source my power from myself
I shine and become all that I need
Surrender to the unbecoming
