Deborah Garrison Quotes
It Was Not Like Everyone Had Said.
Not Like Being Needed,
or Needing; Not Desperate;
it Did Not Whisper
that I'd Come To Harm. I Didn't Lose
my Head. No, I Was Not
going To Leap From A Great
height And Flap
my Wings.
It Was In Fact
the Opposite Of Flying:
it Contained The Wish
to Be Toppled, To Be On The Floor,
the Ground, Anywhere I Might
lie Down ...
On My Back, And You On Me.
