Double-edged fire forever desires to burn and
yearns to lead the lost to hope.
Starting with you,
beginning with the sun in your veins and
alchemy in your identity and
the winds of your heart.
Divine design of duality
create time-worn pathways
revealing all versions of you,
morphed into a phoenix &
armored in star-kissed faith.
Storms formed from your power
crackle further than ever anticipated &
feed the rolling thunder in your spine
to the souls of those who sing Your glory
from river deep to mountain high.
Lioness under your flesh and
down your throat, fierce protectress of
the will and way of woman,
You make it clear only a palmful of souls know
how to be both stronger than the wind and
the sound of saving grace.
But You, goddess of ever-burning Rock n’ Roll flame and
swift spirit, deserve every inch of softness offered,
every point of protection presented,
every ounce of justice weighed in Your favor.
From one realm to the next, may Your essence
forever sizzle and soar.
Because whether You believed or not,
despite the world not consistently
admitting nor deserving it,
You were always the hero we needed.
