come now away

once in the darkness
where i was thinking
i saw a light
oh deep in my soul
i did not question
where it had came from
i simply sat
in its embrace

once in my heart i saw the blinking
something worth saving
here evermore
i did not ask what was waiting
i simply helped it
and so should you do

once in the sunshine
i smelt a smoking
i did not think, oh where it could be
i simply ran, oh far away
where we all met up, to go flee

darling don't question my intuition
just come with me, where we will be safe
just come along now, know i will lead you
where nothing can hurt us
here evermore

Inspired by Hozier's lyrics, and the tune of "Like real people do"

  • this summer

    this summer holds many adventures waiting:

    graduation
    next week I leave this school behind

    the begining of an end

    ice cream and treats with friends
    playing with the neighborhood dogs

  • ocean cottage

    10 years i've spent here
    this cottage by the sea

    these 10 years i've spent here
    have become a part of me

    long i've stood on this shore
    the tides come in and out
    and so my heartbeat follows:
    in and out

  • Alone But Not Lonely

    A tundra desert stretches as far as the eye can see: 

    far away, one might glimpse 
    a wandering soul 

    a little fox, 
    fur white as the snow 
    eyes blue as the coldest mountain creek
