28.2.09


From the top of the flight
Of the wide, white stairs
Through the rest of my life
Do you wait for me there.
Though my wrists and my waist seemed so easy to break
Still, my dear, I would have walked you to the very edge of the water
And they will recognise all the lines of your face
In the face of the daughter of the daughter of my daughter.

The beauty that is - Joanna Newsom
