She says, "Today, I am truly dying
but I stand complete in spite if it.
These rooms make me who I am.
They define my days and my dreams when I awake."
There's ghosts in these rooms and my heroes hold my hands.
There's designs in our thoughts & secrets in our hearts.
There's ghosts in these rooms and my heroes hold my hands.
There's designs in our thoughts & secrets in our hearts.
And here we improvise the minutes
to explicate our meanings, to sanctify our dreams.
These are memoirs of these days.
Yes, there is something beautiful and tragic about letting go.
I am ready, I'll kneel at your feet.
I will lift my hands, splay my open arms and offer you my throat
Here is my breast, I'm waiting...
"We were soldiers and some of us still are. A symbolic prologue to the years of attrition yet to come. These are memoirs of these days. Yes, there is something beautiful and tragic about letting go. Here we improvise to choke down the minutes and if we hadn't persevered then what might we be left with? There we hold fast to explicate our meanings, to sanctify our dreams."
