My Dance

You hold my hand so tight You don’t want to let it go… I’m trying to pull it over So I can walk alone… _____ I don’t know What’s on your mind…. That you just can’t let go… As I look at you… There's fear inside of you… _____ You played the music well And the melody was just right You taught me some steps of it And dance it Under the moonlight… ------- I stretch my wings so wide And keep my head up high While foreseeing my future And all my heart’s desire… But… “Ravenous for sovereignty Trying to get some liberty” Is all inside my mind… -------- I wonder how I can manage All what you’ve encouraged I know all things encompasses To live a life to its fullest… -------- Now I’m dancing… Dancing on my own… Making some steps, but Not as perfect as you owned… -------- After 35 years… I’ve asked Gaining some courage at last.. To freed me from the wrath… From the wrath you gained from the past… …. That you dreadfully wanted to last… I love you mom.. For letting me go…
