"What a couple. I'm consumed into ashes, and he's always raking up the ashes and setting them on fire again." ~ Agnes Smedley
me waking an eagerness and such
those dormant longings were set free
ashes of it fall around me
the world continues to exist
so that this feeling will persist
yet i feel we willed it to be
ashes of it fall around me
intoxicatingly tragic
you spun your contrary magic
hypnotizing and i still see
ashes of it fall around me
breathtakingly tender you touched
ashes of it fall around me
Hits me where it hurts. This is my favourite piece, by far, from you. Quietly poignant and touching.
