If my words could but create
I would stretch the delicate folds of the soul that soars
And encompass the unredeeming sky,
Weave the tender smile of Love's divine face
And bring it back into the heart of this dark city,
Release the chained harmony
Of hands that were meant to cherish,
Capture the fleeting moment
Of familiar deja vu,
And arrange a symphony of color, light, and sound
