Dark and Strange – Written Tuesday 19th October 1999 (Aged 24)

Dark and Strange

i felt for the evening
it was dark and strange
a paradoxical world we live in
i felt for the girl
lost in some kind of bathroom
the lights were turned on
but shadows still dance
to a beat long since gone
i felt for the beach
the volumes and volumes of things
that they will never teach
it was dark and strange
a paradoxical world we live in
i felt for something new
in some kind of house
my mind wandered and found you




James Garratt – Tuesday 19th October 1999
