The Mission

Louder than the wind

I hear the screams

The accusations

The fighting

All the times you didn’t know how

to choose joy

The whirlwind never stops

The one that keeps my voice

out of your head

Judgement

Defiance

Defenselessness

fed by a spirit you know well

but not by name

I want nothing more than to love you

I have gone to the ends

of the world & back

I chose you

I will never give up

So I will wait

Even if it is your last breath

I will hear you

when you choose joy
