shapes of grace
Don’t you dare give up, my dear
you can’t see through all the tears, but I’ll tell you what’s here
a bright burning flame, a strong sense that you’re so alive
and yes, the sun will rise; you’ll do more than survive
So don’t you judge this life by just one hand
for such cruelty can’t last and his anthem won’t stand
you sing your songs, you go on and hope anyway
and remember you’re more, so much more than they say
And there’s no need to fly away
you close your eyes and you let your body sway
and the world won’t blink, for fear it will miss
the way your body makes such shapes of grace
the way your body makes such shapes of grace…
p.s. I would really prefer that I never ever look the way the video chose to freeze me. Just saying.

Beautiful, Jess.
thanks, kathie!
You hair kind of makes you look like the girl from Run Lola Run.

Oh, and beautiful song, too.
and I probably look even more like her when I am, in fact, running.
and gracias.
YOUR hair.
yes, I assumed you were talking about MY hair, and not someone else’s.
Don’t worry, Jess–you don’t look anything like the freeze picture!
thanks, mom–I really hate it and wish I could change it!!!
