Awake

When I was dust
Water never touched me
And I was surrounded by grace
the grace of love

The willow weeped
and I brushed off its tears
and I smiled because
I didn't drown...
in sorrow or in sadness

I wasn't lost
because my friends didn't desert me.
I was the desert
So, I couldn't lose myself!

When I was dust
The stormy winds
Kept me strong
It blew by me and through me yes
But I was more than dust
I found, I had made castles
of my dreams

I screamed
(as loud as I could)
with laughter in my voice
and with a sense of ... security
I was everywhere-
Now,  I am here
Awake.
