Tearful Faces
sometimes the confidence
the self confidence
is too much
and then,
it is not enough
may as well use a tea towel –
to dry our tears
making the days our own
but making sure
we do not find ourselves feeling alone
who does fit in –
with the world around us?
who does feel,
that this shambolic chaos
is actually real?
sometimes the confidence
the self confidence
takes you to place
where they pain tearful faces
James Garratt – November 2015
