Wild Child ~ Philip Brent
Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,
Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment
…
Believe Me
Tell me the things you don’t remember
Play me a symphony without any notes
Dance me like we’re young and limber
Believe me all the things that you don’t
Love me tender, when I’m lovable least
Teach me concern about nothing I want
Dress me in nothing as I go to the feast
Paint me pictures in no color, you can’t
Give me nothing not already in my head
Tell me stories while not using your lips
Impress me by what you’ve done, not said
Empty me, until into me the cosmos slips
…
Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,
Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment
