Fingerprints

I saw this song on your page and I thought it was about me
So I took all my accoutrements and I let them go free
I gathered up my skirts and I got on the road
Coz you know I have to kiss that toad
And I run to your side as I abandon fate
I ignore the red flags and the hate
That you espouse, that sometimes seems to escape
From your shape
And I know we all draw lines
But I would do it again a thousand times
And I found you in 2011
It was the dawn of heaven
Over my dark night
My soul expanded into the light
That you effortlessly are
Then I realised that the star
You had been looking at was her
And what we were
Was only in my mind
(Or so my sister says, and to leave it all behind)
But there’s a part of me that is resolute
I laugh as you act the flute
On a screen
And this dream
Is better than reality
Coz somewhere in time and space I was with you
