Song for Mary Ann

Maryann, this is a singing telegram from a candle in the darkness as the planet waltzes through the night. Please know there's light on the other side.
You and I stand on a ground of shifting sand, and the gray clouds block out the sun now but behind them is blue and white. The sun shines on the other side.
Mountain peaks mirror the deepest valleys. And these valleys have been pretty deep so there's bound to be spectacular views ahead. i know it's hard to see the clearing through the darkness, but without the darkness you'll never discern the constellations overhead.

I know you can make it. I know we can make it. I know you can make it through the night. Let the stars shine bright. Stars, shine bright.

Inhale what is
Exhale what isn’t
And stop waiting for your life to begin
And darling, strip away your layers
Let the sun caress your skin
With every step the warmth of pavement
Kisses your feet
And every breeze becomes a whisper, an answer, a sigh of relief
Ma said to fall in love with breathing and quit picking apart particles in the air
And if you stay in love with seeing, does it matter if what you see is really there?
you see, we’re carbon and synapses, we are dark matter and a tunnel of light
And when gravity collapses it won’t matter if you should’ve or you might
The sun spots slanting through my grandma’s kitchen cast a golden glow on her face
She said, “don’t waste your years living anywhere but here.”
I awoke and slowly stopped belivin’
That heaven or hell would come collect me when I stop breathin’
You see the future’s no escape if it’s the present you are fleein’
Forget what will, forget what was and try to stay with who you’re bein’.
Right now, stay with me, Remember this is fleeting
No need to see past this second it will pass as all seconds do.
Right now is forever
It’s always now or never
We’ll never be here again so you might as well always be starting anew
My heart is guaranteed to stop one day
Yours will stop too.
So don't waste your years living anywhere but here.
