Saeglopur

Breathing in clouds on a tightrope, a mountain to each end, I dance over howling canyons... To the side of earth on which you stand. I will make it there. Vernal beloved, I will make it there. X

Nice imagery! Well written. What does the title mean?

Saeglopur by Sigur Rós is a shared favorite between my lover and I. It fit for the title because of the way I was feeling at the time when writing this piece for him. "Lost at sea," is the meaning. I was in discovery of the way I felt about him and about "us". I knew I wasn't quite there. On a journey of sorts. One of both fear and ecstasy (as falling in love is.) But I knew I saw him at the end of it. The very sure, rock solid, ground I wanted to be on.
