It takes a lot to know a man
it takes a lot to understand
the warrior, the sage
the little boy in rage
it takes a lot to know a woman
a lot to understand
what's humming
the honeybee, the sting
the little girl with wings
it takes a lot to give,
to ask for help,
to be yourself
to know and love what you
it takes a lot to be,
to touch, to feel
the slow reveal of what
your body needs
it takes a lot to know a man
a lot to know, to understand
a father and a son
the hunter and the gun
it takes a lot know a woman
a lot to comprehend
what's coming
the mother and the child
the muse and the beguile
it takes a lot to give,
to ask for help,
to be yourself,
to know and love what you
it takes a lot to breathe
to touch, to feel
the slow reveal
of what another body needs
it takes a lot to give
to ask for help, to be yourself
to know and love what you
it takes a lot to breathe
to touch, to feel
the slow reveal
of what another body needs
it takes a lot to live,
to ask for help,
to be yourself,
to know and love what you
it takes a lot to breathe
to touch, to feel
the slow reveal
of what another body needs

what are you so afraid to lose
what is it you're thinking
that will happen if you do
what are you so afraid to lose
what is it you're thinking
that will happen if you do
what are you so afraid to lose
what is it you're thinking
that will happen if you do
