Singing with a stolen voice Borrowed tongue, the song of choice Would have to be Of ice and fire majesty. To run from here on others' feet A differed meter, with which to meet A girl whom I've known before Though now we drink and gamble more. Her persona, then, was gently sore; I see none of the scars we bore As children, though now I see The scars she left now complete me.

Kitsugi of the Soul
Singing with a stolen voice Borrowed tongue, the song of choice Would have to be Of ice and fire majesty. To run from here on others' feet A differed meter, with which to meet A girl whom I've known before Though now we drink and gamble more. Her persona, then, was gently sore; I see none of the scars we bore As children, though now I see The scars she left now complete me.
Kitsugi is the Japanese tradition of mending broken pottery with gold, accentuating the cracks and scars.
