Dust (reprise)

Sorry I haven't posted for a long while.  I have more content that I hope to upload soon.  This is my attempt to turn my poem "Dust" into a song.

And she walks down to the shore

Up to the edge of the waves

The distance to the sunset

Is matched only by her gaze

And no strings bind her

That would keep her from going where she wants

And I hope peace finds her

But I fear there is nowhere she belongs

And her home is like the dust from God's fingers

Cast everywhere, but never stopping to linger

All empires crumble to the ground

But men still seek to build them tall

There all built on foundations unsound

She knows as she watches them fall

But they still laugh at her

Cause she has nothing in their eyes

But it doesn't matter

Because she sees through truth's disguise

And her home is like the dust from God's fingers

Cast everywhere, but never stopping to linger

It's hard to love this girl

Who's happy to pass me by

But I want to see her unfurl 

The love that she carries inside

And I want her to spread her wings

That she's so afraid to unfurl

I want her to laugh and sing

And spread her love throughout the whole wide world

And her love is like the dust from God's fingers

Cast everywhere but never stopping to linger
