Searching
was i searching?
or were they waiting for me
was i learning –
to swim the eternal sea?
with all eyes glistening
i wanted the answers
i was listening
were you waiting for me –
as we swam –
across the dazzling sea
i had to know
if we were being controlled
i had to know
if we were being told
and who was watching
now i am just getting old
from always searching
James Garratt – February to June 1995
