32 Horses


  
32 horses carried me away
on a warm and dusty
summer day

That day I saw
that I could understand
things that few
could comprehend

Her soul so wild
wise and free
she picked me up
under her wing

So young as their spirits 
gathered around me
She walked up strongly
a protective decree
from the darkest hour
that nearly captured me

I've witnessed her soul
heal that of a woman
who shared a similar pain
She knows through 
the images she sees
and the wounds she can feel
She'll test your insecurities

Souls intertwined 
within the divine

Her trust not gained easily
she can see deeper 
than your eyes could ever see
She can feel things 
you may never feel

She connects me to my father
and shows how we understand
the importance of running as fast as you can
with freedom
across an ever-expanding land

32 horses carried me away
they brought me back
forever changed
