Story Behind The Song
Within Our Reach
After the painting, "Reaching" by Yolanda Mazzoni
Within our reach
Within our touch
These wrinkled hands
Strong enough to hold
Even the wiggliest of demons
Those shadowy monsters
Lurking in the dark
Trying to take over
Even the purest of minds
That shadowy creature
Captured now
Unable to escape
The suffocating grasp
Of these determined hands
Veins popping out of them
Showing their tautness
Wrapped around that furry,
Vicious creature
Weary eyes, exhausted,
Sunken in,
Barely noticeable now
Showing its despair
That demon is dying a slow,
Unanticipated death
Barely casting its own shadow now
Lost in the outline of these lean
Yet brawny hands
Proud to have finally tamed that beast
So quietly dwelling inside for so long
- Noreen Inglesi
