Songs: Destiny

Destiny in red
crown upon her head
pushing through the crowded subway
another time, another place awaits

Tendrils of copper frame her face
Each a dream, yet out of place
Flicks a tear with hand of grace

She wanders.

Night is falling
No one calls
The heart's alert
but yet it falls.
Over her shoulders it falls.

Destiny in red
crown upon her head
pushing through the crowded subway
another time, another place awaits

Cardboard tiara
dress now torn
red's her color
red of scorn
somewhere else
a new child's born
She flicks a tear with hand of grace

and touches the past

Destiny in red
remembers the subway
as a chain of command;
golden crown upon her head
rivulets of red gleam on her face
Each a dream, yet out of place

She reaches to the future - where tears are dried.
It's just the city.

A girl-child snuggles in destiny's plump arms.
another time, another place awaited. She wails with life - pure delight.

A symphony spanning galaxies of wonder.

Finding pieces of a puzzle - red is still her color.
