Always Here – Written Thursday 25th August 2005 (Aged 30)

Always Here

always here
did you you know that i was scared
i ran out into the garden
just to show how much i cared

always here
tongue tied and apple eyed
relaxing on the lawn
i don’t remember the cottage
although i was only a new born

always here
i am so tired that i need to be rewired
my brain like aspirin
put it in a glass and watch it fizz
find me a packhorse
and give me a lift

always here
but what you see may be something else
some days are colourful
and some,
some i just don’t like being myself
