A spoken-word piece for Sadie about surrendering to rest and trusting her body's wisdom. The narrator uses stars and natural growth to argue that Eden isn't distant but already here, in the shadows around her. She's urged to ask her inner guidance what it wants, let old patterns go, and rest when overwhelmed.
Sadie, as she goes, the night is drawing in, the stars are whispering. Baby, cherish the blush of your body, it can feel Every joy of this world, if you let it unfold. Baby, we commend you for fighting so fiercely, but we want you to know there's another way. Just surrender. Like cord and thread from the end, fluttering. Grow white and green, you're full of that promise. And don't go searching for Eden, no, it is around you. In tiny multifaceted shadows, we have found you. Baby, trust those clever little hands. Ask them what they want to do and watch as they undo the old ways. And baby, know that there'll be days when it's too much. Just let yourself rest. That's the gentlest love. Sublime on all planets, life unrolls and we learn to grow around the towering barricades. But they're falling away. So pull that golden thread from the air And following. Grow wide and green, oh, full of that promise. And don't boast such shame for Eden wide is around you. And tiny, multifaceted child, know that we have found you. Steady as she goes, the night is drawing in, stars are whispering.
