the drama of our time is the coming of all men into one fate

where was my fault, in loving you with my whole heart?

Fairy lights have this beautiful ability to make almost any space magical. The lighting they create is so warm and gentle. So gorgeous. A lot of people in my life are like fairy lights. Groan-inducing metaphor I know. But it's true.
I will hold on,
I will hold on,
On.
there you were black silver dressed in gold
like every story ever told
a million words in so few sentences
when you spoke to me it rang out like a song
that dared all ears to hear it wrong
And as the sun died
I promised that I'd seek you out
Well now the years have weathered me
And soon I'll claim you for my arms again
the love is enormous
its lifting me up
I'd rather be sleeping
I'd rather fall in to tidal waves
and go where the deepest currents go
to leave you with those days is never something i could do
there'll always be a part of me that needs to be with you
that's just what's true

And if our hearts all disappear
And if our bones, they crumble to the soil
And all our love will rise again
And we'll float to the sea
