It was Friday the 13th
I was thinking of you and my liver
The first two lines of this were in Tom Waits' voice
That night I dreamed of you and me
On awakening it made me shiver.
I once loved the daughter of Diana
Once I loved a girl from the moon
I still thank her for being
It was truly me she was seeing
And kept me from leaving too soon
The injuries inflicted, again and again
For her and for I, scars covering our eye
So let's dance to erase it - with joy replace it
Together we whirled, outside this world
Merging in and through, over and under
Sharing memories and drama
Each step in the dance, healing the trauma
What a mess my lover, our unbalanced blunder
Three legs between us, our dance was the meanest
Destroying our boundaries, while creating foundries
For tools we never used but will need
Still I love this child of Luna
I still love that daughter of the moon
Her life in my dreams, more than it seems
A cove in the ocean, waters of emotion
Swim! but don't dive too deep
We had so much to share, to give and receive
But too much pressure for either to grieve
Our child-like selves, put up on shelves
Together, maybe we could retrieve
Not innocence lost, we paid that cost
But rather the will to believe
What you already knew and as a mother you grew
Life is worth living my girl
Soul roaming - astral projection providing protection
Release and surcease from the demons
My body and soul a sword to use and to twirl
And with a cry your vict'ry flag unfurl
I love that daughter of the moon
Diana's little girl still fills my inner world
See this sword aflame only for you my dame
With you at my side, locked in stride
My world would never be the same
