This is the One – Written Wednesday 11th August 2010 (Aged 35)

This is the One

this is the one
where the leak in my heart
pours for a while
this is the one with a joke
which i tell with a smile
this is the one
where the leak in my heart
stops flowing
and this is the one
where something is going
just as something else
begins to say hello
this is the one
where my heart would love to know
this is the one
where i watched my reflection
fall to the floor
only to climb back up
and stay forever more
this is the one
where the leak in my heart
trickles and then stops
this is the one where i finally say
enough is enough
