Letter by letter.



Ode to a Paper Crane.

Floating on these paper wings
Watching willows weep
Reaching out for my bare feet
With nowhere to go
Tell me prophet man
Where’s that outstretched hand?
My lungs are filling up with sand
And hours to go
Oh how lost I’d been
Whispers in the wind
Tell me again and again and again
Don’t fold in 
Oh paper crane
In the cherry blossom rain
Everything was heartache and blame
Till you came around
So take me now
To our house of cards
We’ll hold up all the walls with our hearts
Till they fall down
