Whispering

full of fear that our strength was lost 
we started from rebirth 
our feet dirty, skin brown, hearts uneven 
we were challenged, broken down 
stripped bare 

left standing, the only ones, we thought 
we heard silence 
cried out, the drums answered 
training our hearts to the rhythm 
of Africa

we waited, searching, listening 
facing the universe, our ears awoke 
to witness the whispering of the world 
calling our strength awake 

reborn, our feet dirty, skin brown 
hearts beating in union with the drums 
our eyes tame, our cries of joy 
our ears full of the universes truth, 
whispering hope
