a celebration in words

All at once
I want to fly cry shout sing dance
let the drums in the subway announce my joy to all
but I am the only one who knows
I want to fly like fireworks with sparkle as my tail
And burst into a thousand colored glittering lights
Lighting the dark of the night
hearing the echoes of oooo’s and aw’s
I want to dance
Let my body move with excitement
While tears of relief roll down my cheeks
Let Melissa sing to me
How they cut into my skin, they cut into my body,
but they will never get a piece of my soul
Here is my battle cry for hope now and always
Lady Stardust
Spread your hair across the universe and magic let us in
Lets fly into the Milky Way
Let play this song on and on until the dawn and never let them win
I try to say things that matter
To all those faces
Who I cry to now for all you have done to lift me up and comfort me
Here I celebrate in words
I wish I could bundle you up in a big hug and laugh and giggle forever
I want to roll down a grassy hill and laugh
Jump around silly
Shake all of me
Till there is nothing left in me but happy light
I want to go to the tallest hill
In the bright morning light and shout
I am cancer free
I want the world the hear – even the universe
Let me carry lesson forward
Of reaching out and speaking up
Be honest and true
Cry when you need to cry and let it all out
And after all this
Let us celebrate
Let me just smile and glow
You know why
