another psalm 42 by Gabrael StClair — Lyrics
As the deer, as the stag, as the doe, as the fawn,
Frolics, leaps, walks, stands…
However, I am at the forest meadow verge,
In between coming and going,
I am thirsty again, again thirsty.
To or from another stream, pond, pool,
In between flowers and leaves and grass
