you can walk around the world
but it won't bring you home again
unless you tie yourself to me
you can fly too high and burn
but you won't float on the breeze
until you're tied to me
you can rest upon the sea
but you won't see the depths
until you sink with me

i wonder when you're flying if you see
i wonder when you're walking what you mean
i wonder if the sun sets in your eyes for me

you walk and run but you can't leave
you float and fly but you can't be
you hold on tight but you're not me
and i won't let you crash
until you're part of me

this is 108 though it should be 1275 for hope ends with sight and you have filled my eyes for years now and i still feel desperately in love with you and awed by your beauty, your wisdom and your desire for me, not to mention your apparently unwavering love for God

thank you for your steadfastness despite the internal fury, even if you think it inaction due to fear it inspires me for i act too quickly on my own whims

u2 running through my mind as i sit here thinking of what to say and wondering why it always is so long between jags when it would be easy, it seems, to say something nice each day...perhaps you are familiar with the ebb and flow of my affections in word and possibly in deed as well, so now i'm all self-conscious and whatknot and why didn't that guy have to untie the know instead of just cutting it or was that the point that he just wailed on it instead of damaging his brain needlessly and that's how men solve their problems and now i work with engineers, or shall i say beside them, who get paid to solve some of those problems...when an engineer says it's impossible he only means it's expensive and i don't really want to do it anyway which reminds me of the bid i need to put together for the air plant in town, we have a plant that makes air, how's that for a racket, or is it that they extract stuff from the air and isolate one component from another in exchange for money
