We Are a Fellowship of People
Now I slip, I fall inside
Where it gets dark and I want to hide
My vision gets blurry and my heart ignites
Spit and trick,
Hiss and flick
The threats I perceive
but I know
It’s just me
I can tear down my shrine
Destroy it so I don’t have to
Call it mine
I tumble over all the fears I’m
trying to hide
But when I’m here and I’m
With them,
All these gut wrenchings, they
Disappear
When I’m here I know I’m home
Their laughter and their cries
Show me that I’ll never be alone and that
As long as we’re together, our
Limit is the sky
As long as I’ve got them,
I’ve got a space
To allow each tumble and fumble
As long as I’ve got them,
It won’t matter how much I slip and fall
Tumble and stumble and
Spit, trick, hiss, flick
Because they’ll always be
Here to help me mourn and grow
As long as I’ve got them,
I’ve got a place to call home.
