Goodnight Childsprite

by Celogen

it was such a long time ago. you were so quiet, so lifelike. the lotus position on the front room sofa, lasting the whole evening. waiting to be replaced by rainstorms. waiting to see what comes next. the questioning stare in the parking lot meets the nervous turn away. you stood on a pedestal, you blushed on a stage, you wondered how to make contact. all recorded for posterity in a long-lost book of forgiveness. this is the life you want to live — I hope you live forever.

and if you glued your memory back together,
you'd see what's happened here.
but you never will.

isn't it a blessing?

all songs written and recorded by Dominic Demierre.
produced & mixed by Dominic Demierre.

special thanks to: Donovan, Jade, and Max for creative aid; Catherine and Mateen for the cover art; family & friends for moral support; and, of course, everyone who inspired these songs. for better or for worse, I couldn't have done it without you.
