    Standing By

    I love you when you look up
    when you fall down
    all of your emotive scenes
    are picture perfect
    daubed in your sweetness
    or smeared with your blood

    Bleak, dark plummet
    into your mysterious abyss
    is where I stretch
    like a safety net
    I love you when you look up
    and when you fall down

    child-woman let me cradle
    the nursed pain
    if only from a distance
    that you may burst
    like a cracker jack of shine
    beautiful, puzzling daughter of mine
