Will you pick my feathers from the river if I drift below the light ? Collect every last one until I can return to your voice ?
You know I gathered all my aching strength from being alone, you told me in a song, you gave me your words to take with me everywhere.
How many times will I bite my lip before my senses break apart for good and I'm so sorry my eyes hurt too much to really open some days.
But I'll never tire of you, and how we love.
I'm coming back soon to watch the sky unfold, and plant the seed of the answer just beneath your skin. I just hope I'm not too late to rise back above the light to wait and see if you can place all my feathers back from where they fell.
