There must be no prison.

All good things are wild and free


Kindness drops from her like rain from a leaf


She loves and wants love for all


She gives and takes, but never more than she needs.


She could be sitting next to me, but then turn


And she is gone.


Whatever makes her happy


Do not stand in her way


She would never stand in yours,


As the months go by, if she has not returned


Try to remember her face,


Try to remember her voice


Remember her standing in the kitchen


Turning to you and smiling


Glad you had come.


Remember the things she said to you,


But like all wild things


You cannot hold them,


If you do, you kill them.
