There’s got to be more past my intrusive thoughts
The sabotaging behavior after all the shots
I’m lost without you, it’s not fine
Stuck attention seeking all the time
Stay in love with me, keep your eyes right here
Even when distance draws you away, my dear
You grow apart from me, as if a part of you may fade
Keep your energy locked in my love, as though I’d stayed
My eyes are stuck on the curve of your lips, that radiant smile
For your beautiful face I’d walk through the Nile
Even though this life has left us a heavy toll
I don’t want anything keeping me from your delicate soul
No jail or country could close my heart
So I keep on going as I did from the start
I’ll be right there once I’m home, wait for me by the door
It won’t be long now, I’ll be hugging you forever more

The First Wingbeat
The moment before flight is always quieter than anyone expects. It doesn’t arrive with revelation or thunder or some cinematic surge of certainty. It comes as a tremor—small, internal, almost private. A shift in the body before the mind has language for it. A recognition that something in you has already decided, long before you admit it out loud. The first wingbeat is not motion. It is permission.

*** I'm keen to republish the interviews I did for my series with Vocal creators. It's been a few years and I thought it might be nice to revisit these wonderful conversations. I'll be releasing them one at a time for a few weeks/months.

Aww beautiful and kind of worried some ( if the love not wanted). Many have felt this way about someone.
