Lay Down
i lay down crying
feels like i am dying
i wake up only feeling
staring at the ceiling
need to be away –
from all this
need love drenched bliss
i fine myself all alone
just looking slow
not knowing where to go
need someone to hold
i wonder about feelings
stories not yet told
they leave me reeling
James Garratt – February to June 1995
