It was as if I would be doing them a great, unlooked for kindness if only I would pay them a trifling sum on my outstanding debts.

I miss you so much in these wee morning hours,
when the depth of the night sets my spirit free.

as I come across glories and wonders that could easily overwhelm me,
but just dull because you're not here to enjoy them. — Edward Fahey
