Her eyes shine with passion,
Lips are soft and full,
Befitting grace within a name.
The darkness does surround her.
Alone and free of pain,
She turns away from it’s embrace.
All my life, I’ve been blind.
Now I’ve seen … purity.
A life is new and searching.
Behold the dreams of youth,
Which draw her up into the sky.
The wind is warm and touching;
The night … a gentle fool.
A heart is touched, a soul renewed.
All my life, I’ve been blind.
Now I’ve seen … purity.
Her form is free and graceful.
Haunting eloquence.
Beauty I cannot convey.
Her soul is wild and searching,
A spirit strong and free,
Of which I find a mystery.
All my life, I’ve been blind.
Now I’ve seen … purity.
