Self-Portrait
Adapted by Lisa Young from the poem
by David Whyte from Fire In the Earth ã 1992 Many Rivers Press
It doesn’t interest me if there is one God or many
I want to know if you belong or feel abandoned
if you know despair
or can you see it out there in others
I want to know
It doesn’t interest me if there is one God or many
are you prepared to live in this world
with its harsh need to change you
and can you look back with firm eyes
saying this is where I stand
I want to know
I want to know if you know
how to melt into that fierce heat of living
falling toward the center of your longing
I want to know if you are willing
to live day by day with the consequence of love
and the bitter unwanted passion of your sure defeat
I have been told that in that fierce embrace
even the gods speak of God

Overflow

Somewhere deep inside I knew you were leaving
closing down this chapter of time
I could hear it in your voice see the light was fading
wondering when this day would arrive
but I’m not ready to lose you
and my baby’s too small to see you go
and though I am with you
my tears they overflow
tell me that you’re safe and sound tell me that there’s comfort
show me a sign and I will see
I wear your coat upon my back your jewels upon my heart
but help me find a way to believe
‘cause I’m not ready to lose you
and my baby’s too small to see you go
and though I am with you
my tears they overflow
but I’m so slowly
learning how to say
goodbye
I’m drifting thru a winter haze I am wandering thru the memories
I am slipping in and out of the cold
but soon the winter it will go and flowers will awaken
to take me from this overflow
then I’ll know that I’ve lost you
still my baby’s too small to see you go
and though I am with you
my tears they overflow
still I am so slowly
learning how to say
goodbye
