Like Goddess Light

I have to be up early tomorrow, which is why I'm still floating around on the internet at ten after eleven. I'm listening to Sarah Slean, which seems like a small statement when it's sent out into the void, but feels like it should be a part of scripture for all that it means to me. I've determined that I DO have a favourite song, "My Invitation." You know when something makes you want to cry, but you can't, because you suddenly find it impossible to breathe? But then, when it's over, you let out a sound that is difficult to describe, but full of everything you've been holding in? That's what this song does to me.

"She has such an awful lot of soldiers
quite a lovely army all her own
night and day they stand before the fortress
very safe, but very all alone"
