Howl At The Moon

Start with your story...
Tell me everything in detail.
Tell me of your laughter and tell me of your tears.
Tell me everything in-between
I'll listen until you feel naked and clean.
Speak until you've had that weight lifted from your heavy beautiful heart.

Tell me of your moments,
Wrap them up with a bow.
Please fill my soul with sweetness.
With every word you spill out
Tell me of your vulnerability 
So that I can share mine too.

I always feel naked... 
Especially when I sit under this blood red moon.
I'll tell you this,
I sped out past the city lights 
And onto this empty highway.
I heard the wilderness calling
He has been yelling out my name 
Something has been tugging at my heart for far to long.
I've been yearning to howl at that moon like the animal that I am.

Come howl with me....
Let's tell our stories out loud.
Let's scream into the universe.... 
Only to have her yell back,
"Come to me and tell me everything."
I'll tell her that she's the lucky one
But to never forget that I kissed his lips first...
Once upon a time.

Let us make a pact to kiss the sky...
Lie our bodies down on the earth.
Let's fall asleep on snowy mountain tops
Only to wake upon the sandy beaches with our toes in the sea...
Hearing nothing but Mother Earth... 
Wrapping her sweet arms around us.

I didn't look back...
Not one single glance.
The more we look back...
The more we are breaking our necks.
Let's set back our watches an hour 
Just to have a little more time to the day.
Let's set out for destinations unknown and drive toward the clouds.

We'll remember to save all of our sleep for our next life.
We need to make all that we can of this one...
Learn to never hold anything back.
We will drink too much 
And laugh too much.
Remember to never hold onto to anything too long.
Let's say things we don't mean
Love with everything we are.

We need to be free.
We need to be wild.
Let's howl at the moon like the animals we truly are.
