Memories

"Nothing prevents happiness like the memory of happiness. "
- Andre Gide

Ode to a woman

Who's seen Jezebel?
She was born to be the woman I would know
And hold like a breeze half as tight as both eyes closed

Who's seen Jezebel?
She went walking where the cedars line the road
Her blouse on the ground where the dogs were hungry, roaming

Sayin' "Wait, we swear we'll love you more
And wholly, Jezebel, it's we, we that you are for only"

Who's seen Jezebel?
She was born to be the woman we could blame
Make me a beast half as brave and be the same

Who's seen Jezebel?
She was gone before I ever got to say
"Lay here, my love, you're the only shape I'll pray to Jezebel"

Who's seen Jezebel?
Will the mountain last as long as I can wait
Wait like the dawn, how it aches to meet the day

Who's seen Jezebel?
She was certainly the spark for all I've done
The window was wide, she could see the dogs come runnin'

Sayin' "Wait, we swear we'll love you more
And wholly, Jezebel, it's we, we that you are for only"
