borrowed time
i borrowed some time
and then i borrowed some more
until my debt was so great
and i was so poor
i couldn't ever pay back
in the coin of the realm
the love that i owed for my time.

For millions of years.
Whenever I offer my body to him
Brilliant light pours fro…

She will know
That it was okay to be different
It was okay to day dream
And, it was really okay
To be herself

And, I told her
How loved she was, by me
And, if no one else
Ever told her so
She knew
How loved she was, by me

I heard a whisper
Art by Charlotte Bird Fairy Photographer
I heard a whisper
Coming from the trees
And, in that moment
I was gone
Gone away
To return, to where I’d come from
