Echoes of a Coyote's Hearts
There's an echo there in that coyote's heart. With one eye brown and the other slate blue. Going deep down inside to that hurting place. Dealing with things should have been dealt with long ago.
But then some just won't let go of their hurt. They wear it like a wall or shield. Then some folks got their big burning shining light.
Where they can help anyone else stand up.
But when it comes to them, they forget about their open wounds. Tell themselves they have no time to attend to their hurts. Their wounds will heal by themselves, so they go on helping others. So how do some get to be so special and carry the light for others?
Well, I'll try to explain. It's like.....It's like.....when the moon and stars shine so bright. Like riding a unicorn through the moonlight. They have a fire inside them that's just so healing for others. Makes you want to stand right up next to them.
And that's all you need to know about them.
Some folks don't believe in the dream world. You know there's a whole world between this one and that one. It's the in-between world that some would stay in if they could.
