mountains tower over the valley,
yielding shadows.
heat empties the river, and
everything is dry,
and the wind roars,
rose bushes cover the hills,
this is the valley of my heart.

oh Icarus, you poor thing.
fell in love with the sun, the sky-
paid the price, i suppose.
why do we always pay the price for love?
Orpheus, lonesome poet,
lost his love because he wanted to tell her they'd made it.
In my attic I keep my heart.
I hold it there, safe amidst pillows, blankets and childhood stuffed animals.
When I make things, I break off a piece of my heart,
and sew it into pillows,
