about

Capture/Release. When the balance between love and freedom is not in place. Without desire, without consciousness of control, love is extinguished by a yearning for release, despite the risks.

lyrics

All the birds sit in a row,
We watch them land, we watch them go
It’s fly or fall, I know
And I keep falling back to you

Falling from the pedestal, you made so lovingly
Up here the air is thinner, I can hardly breathe
I cannot jump, I cannot fly
You know I’m gonna leave

You have claimed the darkness as a shadow battle zone
I’m caught up in the crossfire, the night’s not mine to own
I’m gonna run, I’m gonna climb
You know I’m gonna leave

You can’t claim my body, you can’t claim our love
I’m frightened I’ll fall back again, that freedom’s not enough
I couldn’t love you more
I couldn’t love you more

So I leave before the sunrise, I count my blessings twice
I hear the evening birds, I’ll be counting stars tonight
I couldn’t love you more
I couldn’t love you more

And through the rain beaded pane she saw her future here forever after, waiting for her touch, a golden dream and all it gathers over and under and over and on and on

Women of the ages!
Stoic, waiting, withering women

Under and over and on and on a procession of hands and mouths waiting
for care and food and time and patience and her warm dark velvet deep,
again and over and under and on, sweet, sweet release

Ancient aching woman!
Un-lonely for another

Tethered to house and well and sink and yard pushing a swing again and again on a windy barren hill littered with needles and condoms twisted and discarded

She said
She said

I’ve never been abandoned
I’ve never been alone

I’ve never been abandoned
I’ve never been alone

I couldn’t love you more
I couldn’t love you more
