The Way Home
your problems
were never mine
yet you tried –
every single time
to make them mine
and what you saw yourself as
i had to be but –
you forget about individuality
that i am me
i had to live like them
and what you saw as –
things that had fallen
i had to sink
rather than set sail
you problems
were never mine
yet your tried to –
make them my own
sorry, but my life is good
and i know my way home
James Garratt – September 2007
