Mama Mama help me get homeIm out in the woods I am out on my own.I found me a werewolf a nasty old muttIt showed me its teeth and went straight for my gut.Mama Mama help me get homeIm out in the woods I am out on my own.I was stopped by a vampire a rotting old wreckIt showed me its teeth and went straight for my neck.Mama Mama put me to bedI wont make it home Im already half-dead.I met an Invalid and fell for his artHe showed me his smile and went straight for my heart.-From A Childs Walk Home Nursery Rhymes and Folk Tales

I guess thats just part of loving people You have to give things up. Sometimes you even have to give them up.

I love you. Remember. They cannot take it

There is a nocturna for every single person in the world And each night the nocturni sip dreams from the River of Knowledge and fly out into the world and deliver them to their humans.

Lord help us root our feet to the earthAnd our eyes to the roadAnd always remember the fallen angelsWho attempting to soarWere seared instead by the sun and wings meltingCame crashing back to the sea.Lord help root my eyes to the earthAnd stay my eyes to the roadSo I may never stumble.-Psalm 24 From Prayer and Study The Book of Shhh

In my dream I know I am falling. But there is no up or down, no walls or sides or ceilings, just the sensation of cold and darkness everywhere. I am so scared I could scream. But when I open my mouth, nothing happens. And I wonder if you fall forever and never touch down, is it really still falling? I think I will fall forever.
