Breathe in, Breathe Deep – Monday 21st March 2011

Breathe In, Breathe Deep

there was always –
going to be a point
of reflection
of surveying
perhaps even –
damage limitation
of worried hands
and hopeful expectation
there was always –
going to be moments
when decisions –
would be scrutinised
chances made –
would be analysed
people still here –
in them i confide
and this is, that point
this is that moment
when legs can run no more
when you sit back
and when you sigh
when imagination finally –
stops trying to fly
breathe in, breathe deep
keep on going
for now, those thoughts will keep
