Just now---just NOW,
he called my name...
a cry of fear within the night.

Just now, just now,
I played the game.
I told him all would be alright.

Tell me what is wrong with me?
Tell me why I bruise my knees?
Before he called, I was quite free.
Just now, he proved a slave of me...

I wish, I wish, I were so cold
to be so deaf, to be so bold,
that I could listen to him cry
and not feel part of me has died.

Just now, he wrote the rules again...
just now? I let the darkness in.

It's OK to let the darkness in sometimes, as long as you remember where you put that magic flashlight, and how to use it.(and where to stick it?)

Then may you find your candle...and may it burn brightly for you while you walk your tunnel of darkness, Lady. Enjoyed.

Will be sending a brand new purple crayon along with that candied heart...so that you may rewrite the rules yourself!

Some find subtlety in strangers,
some find subtlety in alone.
Your eyes, you see everything,
my eyes, I see it all together now ... and I know.
