Dare We Must


Dare we breathe
the sweetest breath
or wear a grin
while facing death

Dare we ponder
love and hate
with whispers in
our ears of fate

Dare we ask
a dying man
to wiggle his toes
in the sand

Dare we gasp
when love takes hold
or swallow the joy
down into our soul

Dare we smile
upon our fears
or laugh a little
through our tears

Dare we love
and share to its depth
as we ponder
our last regret

Dare we express
our kinder words
lest we fear
they're never heard

Dare we sing
our song of praise
while treading through
our darkest days

Dare we bring forth
our heart and soul
upon our weary
and broken road

Dare we must
and dare we will
for love will sleep
until we feel.

Until we feel
and freely move
the passion within
will not be soothed
