I Dream For A Second – Undated but most likely written late 2013 (Aged 38)

I Dream For A Second

i forget for a second
then i cling
and then i dream for a second
i remember everything
sometimes i stop
and i draw my breath
but scrawls upon my head
remain the hardest yet
i take comfort from our life
i think about what went before
before,
we pushed open the door
before we were raided in our general store




James Garratt – 2013
