about

This song is about embracing the wholeness of self, so much richer in that fullness. To integrate the griever, to know her-- the power, beauty and gifts she brings-- and to grow with her.

lyrics

The grief that I'm holding
on this cold lonely morning
as I sit with where I'm at
is as grey as the skies

I just keep breathing
to be in my body
heavy and solid
I close my eyes

Don't try to refine me
I'm Dark Wild Honey
taste the full richness
so raw on your tongue
If you want white sugar
remove me from wholeness
but you'll find you're still hungry
when the sweet high is done

It's part of who I am
and so this is beauty
and I can embrace it
ugly and all
once I can feel it
I can integrate it
Oh start the weaving
so I can move now and grow

Don't try to refine me
I'm Dark Wild Honey
taste the full richness
whole world on your tongue
If you want white sugar
remove me from wholeness
but you'll find you're still hungry
when the sweet high is done
