The Journey
Girl, I dream of that journey
of discovery and the feelings you have shown me.
Girl, I dream of your face in amongst the crowd,
unbeknownst to me but so obvious, so loud.
I can see it now in my mind, your hand stretching out.
We whisper each other’s names in bated breath,
bathing in the excitement of it all.
I can feel your arms around me.
Together we protect like a solid wall.
Together we are locked into my reality.
The moment breaks all the rules of time,
but in reality, a couple of moments is all I find.
James Garratt – Monday 4th January 1993
