Another Life Away
it seems like another life away
another world
another place
pictures almost seem fake
i dreamt of her the other night
and in the dream
she climbed into a taxi
and the taxi drove off
perhaps i am finally –
letting myself dwell on it all
it was a time
no one can ever understand
like it ours or perhaps just mine
it would be easy –
to say i was blind
but i know that it not true
it seems like another life away
as if the body snatchers
came and then they went
another time
another life so different
no regrets
no regrets
never, never any regrets
life is what it is
even when it looks a complete mess
James Garratt – February 2010
