In tears when you touch it
No barrier to pain
And when

I last knew of you as an enemy
A hater of my life
Your family was all f*#^ed up
More dysfunctional than mine

Solving freedom
A cage
A cage within a cave of my own creation
A cage where I live and make my own way

Watch them crumble in the water
We sever ties we thought secure
Ties that will not mend
Then we take a step take a breath and do it all again.

We look before we leap
We create our own damage
And we damage

What others think about you
You are my strength
You are my only true friend
My tear
My dear
My secret company
I remember
You walked with me through airport security
You flew with me in the airbus
When I was alone by myself
Leaving my land and loved ones

The lifeblood of the world
from the heavens falls—
The very spirit of the earth

a velveteen shield turns away steel.
For though
shards of ice
have dealt many a blow
my heart yet beats warm and willing
