You Need Answers – Written October 2006 (Aged 31)

You Need Answers

i know you need answers
because,
i have seen it in your face
i know you have hurt
and that you want to fill the space
there is no shame in that
no reasons,
to have the emotion
why pretend?
why all this commotion
despite the anger –
and the occasional anger
i look at you
and i notice the violent weather
i see you in a stormy sea
i only hope things would get better
you need answers
you need a show stopping finale
not left footed, flat footed dancers




James Garratt – October 2006
