"Fall And Ring"

(written 4/4/06)

The church bells will ring,
and a part of each of us will fall.
Fall because of happiness,
because we have reached new heights.
Fall because of sadness,
because we haven't learned to let go.
Fall because we have realized,
realized that we are no longer kids.
Fall because we are proud,
proud that "we" still exists.
Fall because we have all loved,
loved the beauty that He has created.
And the church bells will fade,
but a part of each of us will ring,
ring for the unspeakable, the steadfast,
the undeniable, the unconsciousness, and the
splendor of Love.
