A Shoulder Full of Tears
a shoulder full of tears
arms clasp
but do not feel right
but sometimes
we all need to be held tight
arms around them
a shoulder full of tears
we are chipping away
at lost years
the harvesting of family fears
arms reach out
a shoulder full of tears
James Garratt – Tuesday 30th January 2007
