Hush, little girl
Silence your heart and your everchanging thoughts
They are noisy and distracting
Let me help you hear the beats and drumroll all around you
They are waiting, begging you to come home
Pay no attention to Death
Stray not from the path
Your story is not about destruction
It is a tale of truth and reckoning
Of love, hate,and passion
Pain, anguish, relief
Greed, ambition, lust
It is the tale of a young girl walking down a rocky dusty road with bare feet
And her head held high
