This is Katie’s fave song of mine. Well it was the last time she told me. My oeuvre is large enough at this point that I have to say MY favourite is ‘the next one…. and the one after that, and who cares anyway, it’s all about how it lands.’ So here’s something for bisexual gals errywhere.
For she is a healer
who sees to the heart
a friend who has always
taken my part
though miles lie between us
I knew from the start
Her voice will sustain me
her love is now part of the home that is feeling
and not just a place
for me to park my belongings
and rest from the race
our home is the earth as it circles in space
we lovers have learned to escape from our words
to nourish the peace and attend to the hurts
to know who we love and will never desert
I long to be with her, and never let go
but life isn’t simple, or we’d never grow
to most of life’s longings, the answer is ‘no’
I treasure the mem’ries we made out of the
snow that is transformed by the weather and nature’s design
from crystalline enchantment to something as fine
as the mist on the mirror that once framed your face
we lovers have learned to escape from our words
to nourish the peace and attend to the hurts
to know who we love and will never desert
I wrote this for a friend and her lover and they promptly broke up.
long distance relationships I tell ya
She had the most beautiful tie dye outfits! and anything else gets under the zip of lips.
