If I Could Start a Thaw – Written Monday 15th February 2010 (Aged 34)

If I Could Start a Thaw

if i could the person inside
and banish those ghosts
if i could find what i glimpse
banish the shadowy hosts

i see potential
abused and left outside
by those who went before
if ca expose your sunshine
if i could start a thaw
give you the freedom
lost to oppressive lovers

if…
if i can see you
away from the the bright lamp
which has shone in your eyes
away from the storms
and cloud laden skies




James Garratt – Monday 15th February 2010
