Mortals
Mortals
By Michelle Morris

Here we mortals turn to stone
By our hardened hearts
And callous disregard
For each other and our planet
Let us embrace our humanity
And melt the hardness and tar
That holds us down and immobilised
That keeps us from freeing our souls
Imagine the light that burns deep within
It's inside you and ignites your soul
For you are starlight and stardust
The Universe's magic untold
Here we mortals can illuminate
The dark abyss and limitations
When we remember our true forms
Greater than humanhood bred or born
Let us embrace our divinity
And free the bonds for all to feel
So that we can rise higher and incandescent
Collectively beyond the present
