Georgia Stitt
love after love
Select language to translate this lyric
The time will come
When, with elation,
You will greet yourself arriving
At your own door, in your own mirror,
And each will smile at the otherâs welcome,
And say, sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart
To itself, to the stranger who has loved you
All your life, whom you ignored
For another, who know you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,
The photographs, the desperate notes,
Peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life.
