Part II: Ewa
Without a pause Told us the numbers he had tattooed on his arm Without a stir, a single shake she carried on Told us her father never spoke much of the war He said “words only miss the mark”
She said, “It's hard not to just let this swallow me. After all this, is there still a place for poetry But if he saw Beauty in a daughters kiss Saw it in sovereignty without bloodshed Then you kids have no excuse for not seeing it”
With steady hands she flipped through days From the years she lay awake When she would write down everything And wonder what her Babcia would think And what her Dziadek would have said About her love for the classics And the way she taught us kids The things that no one else had said Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
About the choice to fight or flee About how the romantics loved to write in blood not ink
She said you can't dwell But don't forget
Without a pause Told us the numbers he had tattooed on his arm Without a stir, a single shake she carried on Told us her father never spoke much of the war He said “words only miss the mark”
She said, “find your place Between tradition and disruption and dismay Find a freedom in yourself or deep in faith Because he'd hate to see you throw this all away”
