You Are a Mystery to Yourself – June 2019

You Are a Mystery to Yourself

no one knows,
not you
not deep inside
they look at you
wide eyed
you wonder
why you came
just to sit down
and cling onto the frame

no one knows you,
you are,
a mystery to yourself
the wicker world
and everybody else
no one knows,
not you
or me
so set me out
and set those lies free



James Garratt – June 2019
