... I wish I may, I wish I might
I held Leo and he held me and we rocked back and forth on the old elm trunk, weeping, and the salt wind brushed against the salt of our tears. And I discovered that there is something almost more intimate about crying that way with someone than there is about kissing, and I knew I'd never again be able to think of Leo as nothing but a slob.
A Ring of Endless Light, Madeleine L'Engle
Somehow within that cleansing rain
You give me peace to breathe again
Though time brings tears
The tears calm fears
And bind us together as one
Renew the sight my eyes have lost
Betray the love my soul has cost
Beneath this mask
One thing I ask
In all this, stand with me
Release the time I thought was gone
Begin again, pink light of dawn
Awaken the night
Prepare to fight
Believe in me again
When loving becomes the heartache of losing
All I hold dear, no more of my choosing
Carry me ever past
Endearing the last
And wish upon that star
~me
