Don’t ever!

You may bring the cold side, You may try to make me freeze, and take away all the warmth.

But don’t ever tell me to leave my sun. Don’t ever!

You may hit me. You may spit on me, and leave me broken.

But don’t ever silence my voice, Don’t ever!

You may call, stop my tone, and wipe out my lyrics. You may howl, and scream.

But don’t ever, erase my song. Don’t ever!

You may make me slip, and loosen my grip. You may push me down and take my will

But don’t ever tighten my freedom. Don’t ever!

You may hold my hands, take my shoes away. Burn my path and smoke my air.

But don’t ever take away my wind. Don’t ever!

I’m yours, in spirit and head, your front and other side.

I’m your shadow, your needed sun. I’m at your step, and around your smell.

I’m the echo of your voice, the tone in your call. I am!

Shout and I will answer, scream and I will hear. I will!

Sing and I shall play the melody, cry and I will capture the mist.

I will carry you on my back, I will walk when you are tired, and I will give you my blood.

I wil!
