Grace

Ever missed someone so badly...

that when you wake from a dream about them...

you feel this grief...

that literally grips your heart...

...and it hurts so badly...

...you wake up crying?


Hay, Tita Grace.

I know you're in a much better place right now.

But even after four years, I still miss you so much.

Grace Raya Dizer
May 4, 1952 - May 24, 2004
you are greatly missed






Grace


She takes the blame
She covers the shame
Removes the stain
It could be her name

Grace
It's a name for a girl
It's also a thought that
Changed the world

And when she walks on the street
You can hear the strings
Grace finds goodness
In everything

Grace
She's got the walk
Not on a ramp or on chalk
She's got the time to talk

She travels outside
Of karma, karma
She travels outside
Of karma

When she goes to work
You can hear the strings
Grace finds beauty
In everything

Grace
She carries a world on her hips
No champagne flute for her lips
No twirls or skips
Between her fingertips

She carries a pearl
In perfect condition
What once was hurt
What once was friction
What left a mark
No longer stings

Because grace makes beauty
Out of ugly things

Grace finds beauty
In everything

Grace finds goodness
In everything
