Just curious what stays with people...

"Champagne hair in the afternoon
Now you speak with your eyes
No fun or fair that he’s chosen youth
But out of ash you will rise

You can be loved (chorus /4 times)

It’s what you take
Cause nothing ever goes
How you want in life
When beauty fades
She’ll be his ghost
So put your arms into mine

(chorus)

Words decay so I wanted to show you
Our broken mouths will fail us
When we try to say
You can be loved......"

Orenda Fink " You Can Be Loved"


There’s a poppy wreath on a soldier’s tomb,
There’s a poppy snake in a dressing room.
Poppy poison—poppy tourniquet,
It slithers away on brass like mouthpiece spit.

The Jungle Line
Joni Mitchell

I’ve got tears in my ears from lyin’ in bed cryin’ over you.
