lyrics

my responsibility
starts and ends with kin
they think they can cut us out
i was never in

with my mirror at my side
speed and shadow be our guide
string that binds us sanctified
joining twin and twin

fighting instability
try to understand
tightrope-walking go or stay
trust their offered hands

paths ahead and paths behind
meaning still for me to find
kin is born and made in kind
i will let them in

with each opportunity
tethering the parts of me
tie my strings around a tree
roots and ribbons mingling

losing temporarily
my mirror and the most of me
i give myself eternally
an end to save my everything

my responsibility
starts and ends with kin
lady fate, with offered hands,
pulls my tether in

given wisdom with my wings
i take heart in bigger things
see the crossing of the strings
that start where we begin

though it hurts my heart to leave
learning love is learning grief
through the mourning, i believe
we will endure by tethering

through the bonds of family
they will keep my effigy
feathers dance with falling leaves
