about

Dedicated to Anna and Kieran Sage.

lyrics

FIRST WORDS
from her first words it was manifest
passion for life so eloquently conveyed
she becomes smarter and stronger
as we get older and sharper
with every passing every day.
the future is a jagged puzzle
of unmatching pieces
such a curious dilemma
wishing for them to fit.
and the deepest, most painful regrets
that we’ve grown to forget
return with a hope that
we can make up for what we lost.
this overwhelming silence records her breath
these old worn pillows record our dreams
so clear in our slices of sleep
the pictures don't turn out
but we'll search all our lives.
(for my daughter Kieran and her mother Anna)
