Story

What is the story you tell yourself
About yourself is it kind
It isn't just one though of course it's not
Countless told and untold in your mind

We must be the essence of story
The world comes to order in narrative given to
Us so we learn to belong to ourselves
Telling a story that's true

What is the story you tell yourself
About yourself is it good
Or is it the kind that is heavy with lies
Twisted and misunderstood

We must be the essence of story
The world comes to order in narrative given to
Us so we learn to belong to ourselves
Telling a story that's true

What is the story you tell yourself
About yourself is it real
Full of compassion and nuance and grace
With power to mend and to heal

We must be the essence of story
The world comes to order in narrative given to
Us so we learn to belong to ourselves
Telling a story that's true

What is the story you tell yourself
About yourself is it done
Or can you keep writing it day after day
Unfolding so gorgeously on

We must be the essence of story
The world comes to order in narrative given to
Us so we learn to belong to ourselves
Telling a story that's true

We must be the essence of story
The world comes to order in narrative given to
Us so we learn to belong to ourselves
Telling a story that's true
