I sit at the center of the trunk of the tree Men and women sit in circle around me Places to anchor and send my love It’s easier to go than to stay and feel it all I know it’s not fair, you were only a kid He didn’t know, but it’s bigger than him For these wounds run deep, they’re engrained in us all I’m sorry it’s come to this, but it too will fall
Fall like the tears, down from my face The waters are cleansing when given space The plants and the animals are here for support When we slow down and reach out it’s a magical boat A boat to journey on the waves of the heart Crashing and smashing all violent and harsh And soft and silky like a feather too You have it all, no need for two
And with realisations we help others rise Put on your own oxygen mask before too wise At the end of the day it’s all about love How to share it and feel it and receive from above Receive from above and send it down to her For she is the mother whom we all love Gracias Madre, go raibh maith agat a mháthair Gaia Sofia and Éiru too
We are all threads in this tapestry of life Unraveling the stories, the truth and the lies We have all the answers, don’t you remember Don’t you see? You’re the one you’ve been looking for you silly billy You’re the one, the time is now, it’s right here Don’t doubt or you’ll miss it releasing that fear We can’t change or fix them Only help them along It’s hard to see them broken and lost from the song
So let’s sing and let’s dance And let’s howl at the moon The ancestors calling, remember the tune? For him and for her For me and for you We’re in this together, you feel that too? Shiva, Ganesha and Buddha it’s true That triskele is me That triskele is you Jesus and Mary And Joseph too
Deep process is fun right? Yes, this is our birthright Illuminate the darkness to bring in that bright light We are lucky to be here All praise to the one Resistance is futile Remember, it can be fun Come back to the body The earth and the breath What we heal in ourselves Don’t doubt that it helps
For we have the power To feel it all For those who just couldn’t Buried deep in the soil The hunger, the hurt An gorta mór The famine is over Let’s feast for them all The wolf and the owl And the jaguar too Keep beating that drum man I feel it too
As he kneels at the altar In reverence, with grace We’re in this together We’re all the one face That face in the fire That flame has a name Let it burn, let it burn The guilt and the shame I know that it’s painful I know that it hurts But know that it’s softening And it’s not your to keep
Let the rain clear the sadness For the little ones no more The cycles are ending It’s rotten to the core There’s a new North Star now March on brave soldiers And go with the flow Let us sing together Sing each other home
Join us in September 2024 for a series on Unravelling Shame – In this period between Lughnasadh and Samhain as we move from the light towards the darker half of the year, we invite you to join us to shine the light together into the darkness of the shame that we each carry.
We’d love it if you’d join us on this journey to unravel shame.
